Kirkuk (Arabic: كركوك Karkūk; Kurdish: کهرکووک Kirkûk, Turkish: Kerkük), Azerbaijani: Kərkük) is a city in the north of Iraq, 236 kilometres (147 mi) north of, Baghdad, and 83 kilometres (52 miles) south of Erbil. It is the capital of Kirkuk Governorate. Kurds are a majority in the Kirkuk center.
Kirkuk lies in a wide zone with an enormously diverse population and has been multilingual for centuries. There were dramatic demographic changes during Kirkuk's urbanization in the twentieth century, which saw the development of distinct ethnic groups.Kurds, Turkmen and Arabs lay conflicting claims to this zone, and all have their historical accounts and memories to buttress their claims.
A teenager suspected of wearing a suicide vest was arrested by Kurdish security forces in the city of Kirkuk on Sunday night. The vest was dismantled by the security forces, who removed it from his body in the middle of the street before arresting the teenager and driving him away in a police truck. Earlier in the day, another suicide bomber targeted the Jaafar Sadiq Shia shrine in Wasit neighbourhood, in an attack that left four people wounded after the bomber blew himself up. Although suspected of trying to target worshipers at the mosque, the assailant was prevented from entering and forced to detonate his vest at the gate as police were firing at him.

Subscribe to VICE News here: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News Up until a week ago, the city of Kirkuk in northern Iraq was one of the most hotly contested areas in the country, with a mishmash of Kurds, Arabs, and Turkomans, who all had strong claims to the land. Now that the Iraqi army has fled and ISIS has been repelled, the Kurds are fully in control, and hope to integrate the city into the Kurdish Regional Government (KRG). Despite a large Kurdish presence in Kirkuk, this still might not be so easy. The Arab and Turkoman populations have long resisted Kurdish rule, and the large amount of oil nearby — which all of these groups want a fair share of — will only complicate matters further. The Kurds, however, insist that control over the city is more a matter of dignity. Beginnin...

As a 14 year old, he was arrested and tortured by Saddam Hussein's secret police; targeted because he was a Kurd. He has spent the last decades in exile, struggling with his own demons. Now Karzan returns to confront his country's violent past and come to terms with its uncertain future. How do other Kurds feel about the West's policies in their country? Will Kurdistan be dragged into Iraq's bloody civil war or should it become an independent nation? Produced by ABC Australia Distributed by Journeyman Pictures

According to the General Manager of Tangram Hotel Mrs. Doaa Amin, the tourism sector in Erbil still has to pick up. There are local tourists visiting the city and they mostly come from Baghdad, Mosul, Kirkuk and they form the biggest segment of the tourism sector in Erbil (more than 80%). They usually come with their families during public holidays, religious occasions or shopping. Generally, the facilities are being put in place as well as the infrastructure in Erbil.

Midnight bright full moon shines the street is cold and quiet
An open window a naked room a creature's lonely cry
All your prayers they're useless now a man will turn to beast
Tonight until the morning comes he's ruled by evil greed
The ruler of the night the devil in disguise
He'll trap you all the way the victim of the change
In his cell the beast is kept but no chains can hold him back
Inside his blood is boiling hot his order is attack
If he hits you no use to run he fetches you to your doom
