Relation to PJAK rebellion

[edit]

The source brought in the article clearly says the gunfire exchange on May 13, 2010 occured while IRGC had mistaken Kurdish-Iraqi soldiers for PJAK militants. The event happened as PJAK was involved in several skirmishes in the region with Iranian forces [1], and several more violent events followed - [2] [3] [4]. In such cases, when an attack on third party is made while the conflict is between two other parties, the tendency is to place the attack within the scope of the two party conflict. The only problem in this case is notability (no killed or injured), though the fact it occured between Iranian and Iraqi military during a calm period is notable by itself.Greyshark09 (talk) 16:11, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
