The report comes as Washington weighs support for Kurdish groups and Trump speaks with Kurdish leaders about the war with Iran.

An official from the Coalition of Political Forces of Iranian Kurdistan (CPFIK) says Kurdish armed groups based in Iraq have already begun a military offensive against Iranian regime forces.

According to the official, Kurdish fighters affiliated with the Kurdistan Free Life Party (PJAK) began taking combat positions inside Iranian territory on Monday, March 2.

The CPFIK official said several Kurdish political and armed factions are prepared to cooperate with the U.S. and Israel.

“Most of the armed Eastern Kurdistan [Western Iran] parties are ready to work in unity and openly with the State of Israel and the USA,” he said.

It is going to be another Syria for them by creating another civil war that would kill millions of people falling into the USA and Israel trap
