A Peshmerga has transformed a regular army hummer into an unmanned vehicle equipped with machine-guns and cameras to be deployed against the enemy and save the lives of Peshmerga soldiers.
Muhtaj Harki, a Kurdish Peshmerga, says the idea came to him when he first went to the frontline and saw that army vehicles were the main target for enemy fire and the loss of many of his comrades.
He said: "When I first came to the frontlines, I felt like I had to do something for the Peshmerga. I thought of turning a regular hummer into a remote-controlled one so that no Peshmerga is injured when facing IEDs or suicide bombers."
The vehicle is equipped with a machine-gun to fire on the enemy and also with cameras to film and report enemy positions.
