hi,

welcome to the blog. Don't worry. From all Iraq, Sulaymaniyah is the safest. nothing to worry. life goes on here as usual.

Kurdistan is very safe. whether it is Suleymania or Erbil or Duhok.

The internal security of Kurdistan is managed by themself. So, need not worry.

I'm an Indian expat working in Erbil. The expat community here is very diversified, unlike GCC nations. It's a friendly environment here. So do not worry.
