Missile, Drone Attack Hits Iraq’s Sulaymaniyah

Sulaymaniyah: A missile and kamikaze drone attack struck Iraq's northern city of Sulaymaniyah, triggering a fire, local media reported.

According to Anadolu Agency, Erbil-based Rudaw TV reported that the attack involved both missiles and a kamikaze unmanned aerial vehicle. A fire broke out at one of the targeted sites, and ambulances were dispatched to the area. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, and Iraqi authorities had not issued an official statement regarding the incident.

Iran has repeatedly carried out strikes in Erbil and Sulaymaniyah, targeting camps of Iranian Kurdish opposition groups as well as the US military base and US Consulate in Erbil. In the latest previous attacks, Iran launched eight kamikaze drones at Erbil, while a missile strike on a camp belonging to the Iranian Kurdish group Komala in Sulaymaniyah killed eight members of the group.

The Iraq's Kurdish Regional Government has repeatedly condemned Iran's attacks on Erbil and Sulaymaniyah and called on Tehran to halt the strikes.
