Shafaq "Kha bat –" the struggle "(1959-1961) was the newspaper, of the Kurdistani Democratic Party,…

and here what was written in it about the Faily Kurds in that time:

"The Faily Kurds , are a large segment of the Kurdish people, just like Surani and Behdanani , and their country is vast and the bulk of it is located in the Iranian side, and extends into the Iraqi border until it reaches  the Hamrin Mountains series and the eastern  shore of the River Tigris, including the cities of Jalula'a, Khanaqin and Naftkhanah and Gazzlerbat and Mandili and Gazzania and Baladruz and Badra and Zurbatia and Sheikh Sa'ad and Ali al-Gharbi and Kumait and some other places. The problem of the Faily Kurds  has emerged in Iraq after the founding of the Iraqi state and fixing the borders between Iraq and Iran, where entire tribes remained inside Iraq and others  were divided between the two countries. The later kept their Iranian identity  despite the law of Iraqi nationality of 1924 issuance. They were  exempted from compulsory military service because of borders problems and their affiliation to the Kurdish Nationality .
