The UAE has deplored the Turkish and Iranian military interventions in the brotherly state of Iraq, a statement from the foreign ministry said Wednesday.
It said it denounces their violations against the state’s sovereignty through airstrikes in northern Iraq.
“UAE denounced the Turkish and Iranian military interventions in brotherly Iraq, through their bombing of areas in northern Iraq, which constituted a violation of the sovereignty of a sisterly Arab country and led to intimidation and the spread of terror among innocent civilians,” a foreign ministry statement said.
The statement affirmed the country’s “unwavering principle in rejecting all interference in the affairs of Arab countries.”
Early on Wednesday, Turkey’s Defence Ministry said its warplanes had struck Kurdish forces in northern Iraq’s Haftanin region. It was the second strike against the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) in northern Iraq in the space of three days.
