Primary source Internal intake · 1 reviewed intake signal · Desk window 14:11

TL;DR

Iran launched a large-scale attack against Kurdish opposition forces in Iraq and the US base in Erbil, according to reports. Additional waves of missiles were also fired toward Kuwait and Jordan. The attack marks a widening of the Iranian offensive across the region.

01 · THE DISPATCH

Iran launched a large-scale coordinated attack on Thursday afternoon, targeting Kurdish opposition forces in Iraq and the US base in Erbil, while also firing additional missile waves toward Kuwait and Jordan, according to a single unverified report.

The attack follows earlier Iranian missile launches reported at 13:47 Jerusalem, when ballistic missiles were fired from Arak toward Kuwait, and at 14:04, when missiles struck US bases in Jordan. The current wave adds a new dimension by targeting Iranian Kurdish opposition bases in the Erbil area, a longstanding irritant for Tehran, as well as the US military presence at Erbil airbase.

The Zioneer has previously reported on Iranian strikes against Kurdish opposition targets in Erbil (June 7 and 11) and on broader Iranian missile barrages against US bases across the Gulf region. Details on impacts, interceptions, or casualties remain unconfirmed due to the single-source nature of the report.
