Kirkuk

WARNING: Although the Kurdistan Regional Government administered area has significantly greater stability and a statistically lower risk of terrorism compared with the rest of Iraq, Kirkuk seems to be the exception to this. There have been several terrorist attacks in Kirkuk, including suicide bombings, vehicle bombings and shootings that have led to many innocent bystanders being killed. If you must go consult your embassy and see War zone safety.

Kirkuk is a city in Northern Iraq.
