Additional explosions struck the Soran area in Erbil province, reportedly targeting headquarters of Iranian opposition organizations, according to local reports. No details on casualties or responsibility are yet available.
The Soran area, located in Erbil province in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, has been a frequent site of strikes targeting Iranian Kurdish opposition groups. The Zioneer has previously reported on multiple incidents, including explosions at opposition headquarters in Erbil on July 15, and a drone strike on a camp north of Erbil on June 8. These attacks are often attributed to Iran, though no group has consistently claimed responsibility. The latest reports of additional explosions, with the target described as headquarters of Iranian opposition organizations, fit this pattern. No details on casualties or the extent of damage are yet available, and the reports remain unverified.
