A "terrorist" group in Kirkuk has threatened journalists. A Kirkuk security source said, "The group consists of five al-Qaeda members, including Kurds. We've tried to capture them for more than ten days." The source said security has warned journalists "to take precautions from terrorists." Yehia Barzingi, a local journalist with the Associated Press, said, "How can we protect ourselves while (terrorists) don't differentiate between anyone?"
