More than 110 people killed in Iran’s Kurdistan: Official

AI Summary

medium article 2 min

According to local officials, at least 112 people have been killed and 969 injured in US-Israeli attacks on Iran's Kurdistan province, as reported on March 14, 2026. The attacks occurred amid speculation that the U.S. aims to use Iranian and Iraqi Kurdish groups to trigger an uprising in Iran. The U.S. has reportedly been encouraging Iranian Kurdish forces in Iraq to launch a ground operation into Iran. Kurds, an Indigenous ethnic minority spread across several countries including Iran, have a history of resistance against Tehran from bases in northern Iraq. While some speculate the U.S. is planning to arm Kurdish forces, President Trump has stated he does not want the Kurds to launch an offensive against Iran.
