Several suicide drones struck a headquarters belonging to the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (PDKI), an Iranian Kurdish opposition party, in the Koysinjaq district of Erbil, capital of Iraq's Kurdistan Region, on Friday, a security source told Shafaq News.

The extent of damage and any casualties were not immediately known.

Earlier, the Kurdistan Freedom Party (PAK) spokesperson Khalil Naderi told our agency that the Iranian Kurdish opposition parties based in Iraq's Kurdistan Region (KRI) are conducting no military operations against the Islamic Republic of Iran, even as their headquarters “face near-daily rocket and missile strikes."

The attacks, according to Naderi, caused five fatalities; however, “this number of casualties is considered limited given the frequency of the strikes.”
