Since May 20, the Iraqi forces have prevented entry or exit from Makhmour camp, including sick cases, that puts the lives of 12,000 people living in the camp at risk, while many children and women need to receive treatment in hospitals.

It is noteworthy that the forces of the Kurdistan Democratic Party have imposed a siege on the camp since July 17, 2019, and do not allow the camp residents to move between the cities of Başûr (Southern) Kurdistan. Noting that there are many sick cases that need to be referred to hospitals, and the blockade has so far led to the loss of a number of children's lives.
