Reported information

Drones target Iranian Kurdish opposition in Iraq, security sources say

Security sources cited by Reuters reported explosive-drone attacks against Iranian Kurdish opposition in Sulaymaniyah and east of Erbil on 4 November 2026. Komala separately reported an attack on one of its sites in the Balisan area.

Komala blames Iran and reports material damage but no casualties, according to published accounts. That attribution and toll remain the group’s own; the sources reviewed do not independently establish who launched the attack.

Available descriptions do not fully align on locations and the number of drones at each site. Their accounts therefore cannot be added together to establish a regional total. Reports concern several locations and must be kept distinct.
