Sep 28, 2007, 12:24 GMT

Baghdad - Iranian forces resumed shelling several border villages in the Kurdish autonomous region, a Kurdish official source said Friday. A Kurdish official in Sulamyanyah, 350 kilometres north of Baghdad, said: 'The bombings, restarted Thursday, forced a large number of Kurds to leave their villages after they had returned to them when the bombings stopped lately.' 'Casualties and damages have not been identified yet due to the severity of the shelling,' he added. Iranian forces have recurrently hit Kurdish border areas claiming they were pursuing the fighters of Free Life Party of Kurdistan (PJAK). Iran closed all border crossings with northern Iraq Monday after US forces arrested a member of an Iranian trade delegation, causing a diplomatic row between Iran, Iraq and the United States. © 2007 dpa - Deutsche Presse-Agentur
