Iraq's president condemns Kurdish rebel attack

None

Iraqi President Jalal Talabani, has told his Turkish counterpart that he strongly condemns the latest attack, partly waged from Iraqi soil, by Kurdish rebels on Turkish forces, which left 15 Turkish soldiers dead.

 

Talabani, who is a Kurd, said the "Ugliness" of the attacks was increased by the fact they came during the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Fitr, a celebration marking the end of the fasting month of Ramadan. (AP)
