ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - A suspected Turkish drone on Sunday targeted the vicinity of a village in Sulaimani province with no confirmed reports of casualties, a local official said. However, a Kurdish counterterrorism force said three Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) fighters were killed in the attack.
Gharib Ali, the mayor of Garmki subdistrict in Penjwen town, told Rudaw that “a Turkish drone hit the vicinity of Zangidar village, which is affiliated to our subdistrict, but it is not clear if it caused any casualties.”
However, the Erbil-based Directorate General of Counter Terrorism (CTD), which often reports Turkish attacks in the Kurdistan Region, said the drone targeted a vehicle in the village and killed three PKK fighters.
