After more than 70 days since Hemin Hamzeh, a Kurdish civilian, was killed, the government forces shot and injured his three brothers.
According to the report received by the Hengaw Organization for Human Rights, at 5 a.m. on Tuesday, January 24, 2023, government forces attacked the house of Azad Hamzeh, the brother of Hemin Hamzeh.
When his brothers Muhammad and Abdullah Hamzeh arrived at the house of this citizen after it had been forcibly entered, government agents opened fire. Two bullets struck Abdullah Hamza's knee as a result of this shooting, while one bullet struck Mohammad Hamza's hand.
According to eyewitnesses in Sardasht, Azad Hamzeh was also severely beaten by government forces during this attack.
These three citizens—the brothers of Hemin Hamzeh, a civilian who was killed by government forces—were escorted to Sardasht Hospital before Abdullah Hamzeh was sent to Urmia City for medical attention owing to the severity of his wound.
According to informed sources, this action of the government forces took place in connection with the killing of Heminn Hamzah, the younger brother of Azad, Mohammad, and Abdullah Hamzah.
Hemin Hamzeh, 30 years old and from Sardasht, was shot by the Iranian forces of the border regiment on Friday, November 11, 2022, and died after being transferred to the Sardasht medical center.
On January 24, 2023, government forces raided the homes of the Hemin Hamza brothers and wounded two of them with guns and beat up his other brother.
