Last month, <a href="https://original.antiwar.com/updates/2024/11/04/iraq-weekly-roundup-192-killed-in-october/">192 people were killed, and 50 more were wounded</a> across Iraq. </P><P>This precipitous drop in casualties came during a period that included a brief time when authorities prevented intercity travel and implemented a curfew in order to conduct the first <a href="https://manage.rudaw.net/english/middleeast/iraq/211120242">census</a> since 1987. The census may have contributed a little bit to the drop in casualties; however, not all warring parties were greatly affected by census restrictions. Census takers counted <a href="https://apnews.com/article/iraq-population-census-a74ca47e45036b9a593824df0d5889e3">45.4 million Iraqis</a> during the effort.</P> <P>Although Turkish forces were not affected by the census, the number of casualties during operations against the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (P.K.K.) dropped the most this month. Only 49 guerrillas were reported killed. None were reported wounded. Nor, were there any Turkish casualties.</P> <P>Militant activity was likely curbed by the travel restrictions. Only 18 militants were reported killed this month. Three security personnel were killed, and five more were wounded.</p> <P>At least <B>19 people were killed</B> in the final days of November:</P> <P><B>Turkish</B> forces targeting the <B>Kurdistan Workers’ Party</B> (P.K.K.) <a href="https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1171809">killed 13 guerrillas</a> in <B>Gara</B> and <B>Hakurk</B>. <a href="https://ninanews.com/Website/News/Details?key=1171448">Eight more were killed</a> in earlier strikes in <B>Gara</B> and <B>Metina</B>.</P> <P>Turkish authorities reported the <a href="https://shafaq.com/en/Iraq/Turkish-Intelligence-announces-killing-of-PKK-leader-in-Sinjar">death of a P.K.K. leader</a> during an Turkish intelligence operation in <B>Sinjar</B>.</P> <div class="addtoany_share_save_container addtoany_content addtoany_content_bottom"><div class="a2a_kit a2a_kit_size_32 addtoany_list" data-a2a-url="https://original.antiwar.com/updates/2024/12/02/2012354559/" data-a2a-title="Iraq Monthly Roundup: 70聽Killed in November"><a class="a2a_button_facebook" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/facebook?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="Facebook" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_twitter" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/twitter?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="Twitter" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_whatsapp" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/whatsapp?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="WhatsApp" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_reddit" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/reddit?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="Reddit" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_linkedin" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/linkedin?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="LinkedIn" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_tumblr" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/tumblr?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="Tumblr" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_email" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/email?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="Email" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_print" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/print?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Foriginal.antiwar.com%2Fupdates%2F2024%2F12%2F02%2F2012354559%2F&linkname=Iraq%20Monthly%20Roundup%3A%2070%C2%A0Killed%20in%20November" title="Print" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="a2a_button_facebook_like addtoany_special_service" data-layout="button" data-href="https://original.antiwar.com/updates/2024/12/02/2012354559/"></a><a class="a2a_button_twitter_tweet addtoany_special_service" data-url="https://original.antiwar.com/updates/2024/12/02/2012354559/" data-text="Iraq Monthly Roundup: 70聽Killed in November"></a><a class="a2a_dd addtoany_share_save addtoany_share" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share"></a></div></div> <div class="author-info"> <div class="author-avatar"> </div> <div class="author-description"> <h2 class="author-title"><span class="author-heading">Author:</span> Margaret Griffis</h2> <p class="author-bio"> Margaret Griffis is a journalist from Miami Beach, Florida and has been covering Iraqi casualties for Antiwar.com since 2006. <a class="author-link" href="https://original.antiwar.com/author/updates/" rel="author"> View all posts by Margaret Griffis </a> </p> </div> </div> </div> </article> <script type="text/javascript"> var currLayerId = "show";
