Iran condemns 'suspicious' drone attack on Iraqi Kurdistan PM's office

Iran's diplomatic apparatus has strongly condemned a nighttime drone attack targeting the office of the Iraqi Kurdistan Region's prime minister, labeling the operation as "suspicious." The official Iranian news agency IRNA quoted Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei, who reaffirmed Tehran's determination to maintain and strengthen its friendly relations with both Iraq and its autonomous Kurdistan Region.

Baghaei emphasized the necessity of thwarting what he described as "sinister conspiracies" orchestrated by enemies of Iran and Iraq. According to Tehran, these plots are designed to undermine the relationship between the two neighboring countries. The attack itself took place in the autonomous region of Iraqi Kurdistan, located in northern Iraq. The exact circumstances surrounding the incident and the identity of those responsible remain under investigation.
