Masrour Barzani wrote in a post on the X network: “The information and investigations of the Counter-Terrorism Directorate of Iraqi Kurdistan confirm that my personal office and the residence of the head of the Parastin organization (the Kurdistan region’s intelligence apparatus) were today targeted by Iranian drone attacks.”

Mr. Barzani described these attacks as “unacceptable hostile acts” and condemned them “in the strongest possible way.”

In a statement by Mr. Barzani, it is stated that these attacks are a “dangerous escalation of tensions” and a “direct threat” to security and stability in the region.
