Hi Pecha,
Try the BBC for news:

The international version provides reasonable coverage, compared with the UK TV which is self obsessed on many occasions.
On your question: it is a volatile region and, therefore, it could go belly up at any time - much faster than you can get to an Internet cafe - has a long history of "simmering".
Just don't stick a Kurdistan flag on your panniers!! (that reference is a throw back to an earlier thread about "collecting countries" while travelling).
