Dekala, Iraq. A drone struck an arms depot in an attack on the headquarters of an Iranian Kurdish opposition group in Iraq’s Kurdistan region on Wednesday, wounding two fighters, security sources said.
Attack and reported injuries
Security sources said the drone hit an arms depot at the group’s headquarters in the town of Dekala in Iraq’s Kurdistan region, wounding two fighters.
Iran’s accusations and past strikes
Iran has long accused Iraq’s autonomous northern Kurdish region of sheltering militant groups involved in attacks against the Islamic Republic, and Iran’s Revolutionary Guards have repeatedly targeted their bases.
Reuters reporting on consultations
Reuters reported this week that, as the United States and Israel pounded Iranian targets, Iranian Kurdish militias have consulted with the U.S. in recent days about whether, and how, to attack Iran’s security forces in the western part of the country.
What impact could this incident have on security in Iraq’s Kurdistan region?
