It was reported that Iran and Kurdish troops are clashing along the border…it had been reported that Iranian troops traveled 5 kilo meters inside the Iraqi border…

Geo -political tension usually send investors into safer havens …as war environment is normally gold friendly…. Especially in OIL producing regions…….
