"A team went there on a reconnaissance mission but the other side started firing. Before we knew it, we had captured the whole place," a KDP military official said.

"It was their fault. They shouldn't have started firing."

Hah! This made me laugh for some reason.

Me too.

You know you are in bad shape, when you lose a town to the reconnaissance team.

"It was their fault". I read in a newspaper article that the Kurds, in exchange for putting our firepower at their disposal, had agreed to let us dictate when and how far they were to advance. This sounds like a case of a Peshmerga unit advancing beyond their alloted bounds and they want to make sure that it is understood that this was not by their design.
