BURNING OIL WELLS IN QAYYARAH, IRAQ CENGIZ YAR | OCTOBER 26, 2016
“In their retreat late last summer, ISIS lit fire to oil wells in and around the city of Qayyarah. Despite many attempts to put them out, the fires burned for months and covered the city and surrounding countryside in clouds of thick black ash. The smoke trails could be seen from space and trailed for miles, shifting with the wind. Only recently were the last of the wells extinguished.”
A boy walks along a street near his home, while an oil well burns nearby. Many streets and neighborhoods in this area of Iraq look apocalyptic, with oil residue covering all surfaces, turning small streets into muddy oil slicks, yet children can still be seen everywhere playing outside. Isis fighters set dozens of these oil wells on fire before retreating from an advancing Iraqi Army. Many civilians stayed in their homes during the fight to retake the town and remain there today despite the lingering smoke, November 10, 2016. Photo credit: Nicole Tung — in Qayyarah subdistrict.

Qayyarah West and the deliberately obscured role of NZ troops in Iraq
New Zealand’s military role in Iraq remains obscure and largely beyond public scrutiny, despite recent government claims to be more transparent, writes Harmeet Singh Sooden.
Qayyarah West Airfield is a Coalition air base located in northern Iraq, approximately 60 km south of Mosul. The air base was recaptured from ISIS by Coalition forces in July 2016 and rehabilitated to serve as a logistics…

“After a long drive from Erbil I arrived in the town of Qayyarah where oilfields had been set ablaze by retreating Isis fighters a few weeks earlier. The scene was incredibly surreal and felt more like a movie set than an actual real town. My fixer, a Kurd from Erbil, was concerned about security because Qayyarah is a Sunni town and Isis had only been pushed back a short while before – he strongly suspected that there may still be Isis sympathisers in the town.
“We gave ourselves 10 minutes on the ground shooting the fires before getting back in the car and leaving. Shortly after I started shooting, this boy cycled towards me, then stopped briefly and watched me. He seemed far more interested in what I was doing than the fire raging behind him and stared quite intently at me while I took his picture. After a few seconds he cycled off. He hung around for a bit, following us from a distance, then cycled off out of sight.”
