Operation Karbala 10 was a joint operation by Iran and Kurdish PUK rebels in Iraq.
Following the failure of the Siege of Basra, the Iranians launched Operation Karbala 10 in northern Iraq on 14 April. The Iranians, supported by a few thousand PUK Peshmergas succeeded to capturing the outskirts of Sulaymaniyah and Halabja and lands around them.[1][2]
