Duz Khurmatu, 88 km south of Kirkuk, is populated by Kurds, Arabs, and Turcomans and it is one of the disputed areas by the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) and Baghdad. It was formerly part of the Kirkuk province, but was annexed to Salahaddin province by the Baath regime to alter the demographic balance at the expense of indigenous Kurds.
