A drone launched from Iran reportedly struck a camp of Iranian-Kurdish opposition forces in northern Iraq on Sunday evening, according to a single report. Casualties and damage are not yet confirmed.
A single report Sunday evening claimed an Iranian drone struck a camp of Iranian-Kurdish opposition forces in northern Iraq, but the target description conflicts with earlier reports tonight. Initial reports at 20:52 Jerusalem said headquarters were attacked; shortly after, security analyst Yair Goldblatt reported multiple drones striking Kurdish targets in Sulaymaniyah; then the target was identified as a weapons and supply depot. The new report, which calls it a camp, is unverified and no details on casualties, damage, or the specific group have been released.
The Zioneer's earlier coverage tonight at 20:52 began with an unverified claim of attacks on headquarters, then moved to an analyst's report confirming drones in Sulaymaniyah, and finally specified a weapons depot—each step adding detail but still lacking official confirmation. The Zioneer has tracked a sustained Iranian campaign against Iranian-Kurdish opposition groups in Iraqi Kurdistan since early June: on June 7, Iranian missiles struck PAK bases near Erbil; June 8, explosive drones hit a camp north of Erbil; June 10, Shahed-136 drones were launched; July 2, a drone exploded near a camp; and July 9, widespread drone attacks were reported.
As The Zioneer reported, these operations are part of an IRGC campaign targeting groups Iran designates as terrorist organizations. The latest report, if confirmed, would fit that pattern but the precise target—whether a camp, depot, or headquarters—remains unclear, as does the source's reliability. No casualties or damage have been confirmed, and the claim awaits independent verification.
