what used to be...


the Ministry of Interior.

This morning a truck exploded in the city of Irbil, right outside the KRG (Kurdistan Regional Goverment) MOI (Ministry of Interior), destroying this building and 3 others. Local media reports that 19+ locals were killed and 50+ wounded.

Trucks and vehicles and people explode all over this country - in Baghdad, Mosul, Tikrit, Fallujah... but not in Irbil, not since 2005.

We were inside this building a week ago for a planning meeting (this is the captain picture).
