Drone Missiles Strike Kurdish Opposition in Erbil

Security sources reported three victims following a sudden drone attack targeting Iranian opposition headquarters this morning. The attack occurred in remote mountainous areas belonging to Erbil province in the Iraqi Kurdistan region. The dead belong to the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan, including two female fighters in its military. The attack represents a new penetration of Iraqi airspace and continuous violation of national sovereignty by Iran. Erbil issued a strongly worded statement demanding the federal government intervene immediately to prevent an open war. Regional guard forces "Peshmerga" announced a state of alert and deployed additional units to comb borders. Civilians in neighboring villages live in terror and panic fearing renewed random bombing affecting their properties. The Iraqi Foreign Ministry intends to submit an official protest note to the Iranian ambassador in Baghdad. The attack's timing indicates Tehran's desire to display regional power simultaneously with its stifling American crisis. The escalating border attacks warn of a new internal displacement crisis burdening the Kurdistan Regional Government's economy.
