Please pray for the families from Deraluk in Iraqi Kurdistan who have recently lost a family member to Turkey’s cross-border bombing. Six men, who were fishermen and beekeepers, died in the bombing, but only four bodies have been recovered. The grieving families want to know the truth about what has happened to their two loved ones who are still missing. 

The CPT Iraqi Kurdistan Team visited the families of the six men on 24 April, and team members are working with the families to find out what has happened to the two who are still missing.
