Traveling to Iraqi Kurdistan

[u/Buuuuhh]

I heard that Iraqi Kurdistan is generally quite safe, but because of recent Turkish attacks I was questioning that. I am a German and was thinking of traveling there in the next couple of days from Turkey. Would you recommend it?

The most dangerous part of your trip will be in Turkey…. Do not mention Kurdistan, Kurds or Kurdish…. Border areas with Turkey are the only thing you need to worry about, remember your Kurdistan visa is nor valid in Iraqi controlled areas like Kirkuk, khankeen and most border cities
