Shawkat Sheikh Ezzedin

From the news reports:

Other top KDP officials killed were Shawkat Sheikh Ezzedin, minister for parliamentary relations ...

These deaths hit especially hard because they involved veteran activists who had made the journey from Kurdish towns and villages to the mountains for warfare and finally to civilian posts, as the Kurds gained autonomy and strove to cement it in the new Iraq.
