Unfortunate loss of two Peshmergas
Jamshid to the left and Chia to the right
Unfortunately two of our Peshmergas, Sadiq Raofi (known by his nickname Chia) and Jamshid Nasri, lost their lives in a car accident when they were driving back to one of our bases in Iraqi Kurdistan.
Chia (which means mountain) was a dear friend to all of us that knew him; he worked in our party’s secretariat and was always ready to fulfil any duties that bestowed upon him.
Both Chia and Jamshid served the Kurdish nation to the best of their abilities and they will be missed by all of us. Our party sends our deepest condolences to both of these two brave men’s families, friends and fellow Peshmergas.
Today a funeral ceremony, which was attended by our party leader Mustafa Hijri, was held in one of our bases in honour of Chia and Jamshids lives and their sacrifices.
