Iranian Kurdish Opposition Holds United Nations Responsible for Attacks

The Alliance of Iranian Kurdistan Political Parties issued a statement on Monday (April 20, 2026) holding the United Nations responsible for its "shameful silence" regarding repeated attacks by Iran-backed militias against opposition headquarters in northern Iraq. The alliance condemned the "passivity of the UN mission in Iraq and the Kurdistan Region," considering that this silence "encouraged the Iranian regime to commit more aggression and terror." This statement came just days after missile and drone strikes carried out by the Iranian Revolutionary Guard on April 18, resulting in three deaths and five injuries among alliance members. The alliance called on the international community to take immediate action to stop these violations, which constitute a flagrant assault on Iraqi sovereignty.
