The Turkish army’s operations are focused on destroying the corridors, shelters and warehouses of terrorist organizations in the region, despite the challenges and difficulties resulting from the ruggedness of the region.
The Kumar Tepe military base is one of the starting points for the Turkish army’s operations in northern Iraq.
The military base is located at an altitude of 1800 meters above sea level and is surrounded by deep valleys on three sides.
Turkish commandos set out from this base to carry out operations targeting the warehouses and hideouts of terrorist organizations in the Sinat-Heftanin region in northern Iraq, in a proactive step to secure the Turkish border.
