Iran strikes Kurdish opposition groups in Erbil

Two Iranian Kurdish opposition groups’ civilian bases and camps were targeted in seven missile and drone attacks across the Kurdistan Region’s Erbil province late Wednesday into Thursday morning.

Axar.az informs, citing The New Region, the opposition Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran (KDPI) said in a statement that “three drones struck the Zewi Aspi base” during overnight attacks late Wednesday in Erbil province’s Koya district, targeting the group's civilian camps and bases.

“Iran has attacked KDPI bases 119 times since late February,” it added.

Simultaneously, four missile attacks targeted the Iranian Kurdish opposition group Komala of the Toilers of Kurdistan’s Balisan camp in Erbil province overnight, with senior party member Ali Ranjbari telling The New Region that no casualties were reported.

Ranjbari noted that two of the missiles were intercepted in the sky, while the other two fell near the group’s camps.

Both opposition groups stressed that the attacks were launched toward the Kurdistan Region from Iran, marking the second round of attacks on the two opposition groups in a single day.
