Intelligence services

Conflict intelligence
you can act on.

Kurdistan Monitor provides tailored intelligence services to governmental and non-governmental organisations. Built on 10 years of exclusive source networks across all four parts of Kurdistan.

Who we are

Kurdistan Monitor is an independent conflict-monitoring initiative committed to providing accurate, unbiased, and freely accessible information to everyone. We operate with full editorial independence and have no affiliations with any political, governmental, or organisational entities.

We operate through our independent network of exclusive sources and contacts, leveraging 10 years of experience in all aspects of conflict related to Kurdistan — from the mountains of Rojhelat to the streets of Diyarbakır, from the corridors of Erbil to the front lines of Rojava.
