I told CNN that the Kurdish people have been resisting the Iranian regime for decades. Their struggle is rooted in dignity, identity, language, and the basic rights denied to them for generations. #Kurds have carried the heaviest burden of this fight, and whenever they see even a narrow chance to secure their freedom, they rise. Kurds, who comprise 10–17% of Iran’s population, accounted for 47% of verified detainees in 2025, according to the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights. This underscores the regime’s systematic and targeted repression. I also emphasized that the Iran–Iraq border is rugged, mountainous terrain beyond the full control of the #Kurdistan Regional Government. Moreover, thousands of #Kurdish fighters are already operating inside #Iran, positioning Kurds as a key force in any potential shift. @highlight #EpicFury #Rojhilat
