Kurds march in Iraqi Kurdistan against Syrian government takeover of minority

Syria’s government said a drone strike by the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces killed seven of its soldiers on Wednesday, though the ⁠SDF denied this, in an incident that threatens to derail a ceasefire after days of fighting in the northeast. In Erbil, Iraqi Kurds took to the streets to protest as Syrian Kurds see years of Kurdish de facto autonomy in the northeast vanish as Syrian forces take over.
