Last night, large units of Counter-Terrorism, Commando, and SWAT forces surrounded the residence of Lahur Sheikh Jangi, head of the "Berêy Gel" faction, in Sarchnar, Sulaimani.

The Sulaimani court spokesperson announced that an arrest warrant was issued for Lahur Sheikh Jangi under Article 56, which concerns groups conspiring to undermine security and stability.

At around 3:30 a.m. this morning, clashes erupted between the two sides. Using heavy weapons, tanks, and various arms, the forces attacked Lalezar, where nearly 200 armed men loyal to Lahur Sheikh Jangi resisted for about three hours.

By 6:30 a.m., the security forces entered Lalezar, arresting Lahur Sheikh Jangi, Polad Sheikh Jangi, and Aso Sheikh Jangi, bringing the fighting to an end.

During the confrontation, three security personnel were killed and several others were injured.
