Officials with one of the armed Kurdish Iranian dissident groups based in northern Iraq say they are not planning an imminent cross-border attack on Iran but would join a ground invasion if the U.S. were to launch one. Khalil Nadiri, an official with the Kurdistan Freedom Party PAK, made the comments in an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday. The comments appeared to be aimed at reassuring Iraqi Kurdish officials, who have said they do not want attacks to be launched against Iran from their territory. They fear that they will be further dragged into the war in the Middle East sparked by the U.S. and Israel’s strikes on Iran.
