DIYARBAKIR - Sixteen Iraqi citizens who were injured in suicide bomb attacks in Irbil, Iraq couldn't be brought to Turkey due to bad weather.
Sources said on Friday that those Iraqis who had been injured in suicide bomb attacks on the Iraqi Patriotic Union of Kurdistan (PUK) and Iraqi Kurdistan Democratic Party (KDP) offices in Irbil on February 1 were expected to be brought to Turkey on February 11.
Those Iraqis are expected to enter Turkey from the southeastern Habur Border Gate next Monday.
Twelve children from several cities in Iraq who were suffering cardiac problems were earlier brought to Istanbul for medical treatment.
