KDPI leader Karim Parwizi told Shafaq News that the attack targeted the group's forces in the Balisan valley of Khalifan district. The party's fighters shot down one of the drones, while the other two crashed near the targeted area.

No casualties were reported, and the party responsible for the attack remains unclear.

The strike came one day after three drones targeted the Azadi camp in Koya district, east of Erbil, with one of the aircraft hitting the camp's hospital, sources said.
