Overview
- Kurdistan anti-terrorism services said two booby-trapped Hadid 110 drones struck Masrour Barzani's office and the local intelligence director's residence near Pirmam on Monday night.
- Kurdish officials attributed the attack to drones launched from the Iranian border and said there were no casualties.
- Tehran had not issued an immediate admission and an Iraqi government commission has been ordered to investigate the origin and perpetrators of the strike.
- Barzani condemned the strikes as irresponsible and called them a dangerous escalation that directly targeted regional leadership.
- The attack follows repeated drone and bombardment activity across Iraqi Kurdistan since late February and raises risks to local security, US interests in the region, and wider stability.
