The Revolutionary Guards Corps has been attacking Kurdish opposition groups in northern Iraq, blaming them for fomenting the unrest in Iran that was set off by the death of Mahsa Amini.
The death of a young Iranian Kurdish woman in police custody has set off an intense wave of protests over the past 10 days and ignited a fury in the country’s Kurdish minority community.
The 22-year-old’s death sparked outrage across social, religious and political factions. Four people were reported to have been killed by the security forces.
