Heavy snowfall blankets Kurdish mountain town
MERGASUR, Kurdistan Region – Winter hit the Kurdish mountain town of Mergasur hard. A heavy snowfall overnight forced authorities to temporarily close the roads.
“There has been heavy snowfall in the Mergasur region, causing difficulties for transportation. Our teams, however, are now clearing the roads,” the town’s mayor, Ghafur Ahmed, told Rudaw.
Mergasur is located about 80 kilometres north of the capital Erbil.
