Finally, we have Ossetian autosomal samples:

The results for the Ossetians, Kurds, and Iranians are the following (The Kurds and Iranians have two values because they both have 2 different population samples from two different studies):
Component - Ossetians - Kurds - Iranians
Eastern European = 7.2% - 4.1%/3.6% - 3.9%/2.1%
Western European = 14.1% - 7.4%/8% - 6%/5%
Mediterranean = 17.7% - 19.8%/21% - 15.4%/14.9%
Neo African = 0% - 0%/0% - 0.2%/1.4%
West Asian = 45.8% - 42.1%/42.5% - 49.3%/45.4%
South Asian = 4% - 10%/9.3% - 9.8%/10.7%
Northeast Asian = 4.4% - 1.3%/0.8% - 2%/1.2%
Southeast Asian = 3.1% - 0.5%/0% - 1.5%/0.7%
East African = 0% - 0.5%/0% - 0.1%/0.8%
Southwest Asian = 3.7% - 14%/14.2% - 11.7%/16.7%
Northwest African = 0% - 0.3%/0.2% - 0.1%/0.3%
Palaeo African = 0% - 0%/0.1% - 0%/0.9%
The colored components seem to be the biggest difference between the Kurds/Iranians and the Ossetians, this makes the Ossetians a little distant in genetics, they tend to carry more European and East Asian genes, while the Kurds and Iranians seem to carry more Southwest Asian and South Asian genes.
