Sources from southern Kurdistan reported that the Kurdistan Democratic Party's (KDP) authorities arrested NRT channel's correspondent in Duhok Ahmed Zakhoy for covering the demonstrations that took place in Zakho city, south of Kurdistan last night.

The Asayîş of the Democratic Party encircled the headquarter of the channel in Duhok city.

The people of Zakho city went out last night in massive demonstrations against the authorities of the Region, against the background of a decision allowing the Turkish truck drivers to enter the territory of the Region, where the security forces intervened, resulting in the injury of 11 protesters.
