What Is The Truth About The Airstrike on The Turkish Zlikan Base In The North of Iraq?
A picture circulated on social media platforms along with the following text: "Breaking, the second response is now: an airstrike on the Turkish Zlikan base in the north of Iraq, and the sound of the explosion is very loud."
The Truth:
1- The news about the (Turkish Zilkan) base in northern Iraq is true. The news was confirmed by the Anti-Terrorism Directorate in Kurdistan about two hours after the article was published.
From time to time, the area surrounding the base and camp (Zilkan) is targeted without knowing the extent of the losses and damages.
2- The picture in the news post is old. It belongs to a missile attack in Rafah in southern Gaza after an Israeli airstrike on April 17, 2021.
Where Israeli warplanes launched a series of air raids on areas in Gaza at dawn on Saturday, April 17, 2021, in response to burst missiles launched from the Palestinian zone, according to media reports.
Edit note: The article has been modified: at 12:16 PM on 7/23/2022, after the bombing operation that occurred approximately two hours after our article was published, so that the news became (true) instead of (incorrect).
