Iranian drones target Iraqi Kurdistan PM's office and security chief's residence
Iraqi Kurdistan's prime minister says his office and a top security official's home were hit by Iranian drones, calling the attack a dangerous escalation.
Iranian drones allegedly struck the Iraqi Kurdistan Prime Minister Masrour Barzani's office and the residence of the region's Security and Intelligence Agency chief, according to officials. The attack, described by Barzani as a "dangerous escalation" and a "direct threat to the security and stability of Kurdistan," was confirmed by an investigation by the region's Counter-Terrorism Unit.
The two drones launched from Iran targeted Barzani's personal office and the home of the head of the Security and Intelligence Agency, the sources reported. Barzani stressed that such reckless and unacceptable attacks will not discourage the regional government from fulfilling its duties and protecting its citizens.
