On October 16, 2017 Iraq renewed ethnic cleansing of Kurdish and other minorities in the disputed territories. This report details abuses experienced by the Kurdish community in oil-rich Kirkuk and other disputed territories.

The Anfal campaign or the Kurdish genocide was a genocide and counterinsurgency operation which was carried out by Ba'athist Iraq from February to September 1988, at the end of the Iran–Iraq War.

This report includes a preliminary legal analysis and documents collected by Crimes Against Kurds to show accountability is needed for perpetrators of these abuses. These perpetrators include the Iraqi state, Iranian-backed militias and ISIS. The report concludes with recommendations for national and international action to stop the ethnic cleansing and hold those responsible to account.
