New drone attacks hit three oil fields in northern Iraq: Kurdish forces

Explosive-laden drones hit three oil fields in Iraq’s northern autonomous Kurdistan region, Kurdish forces say, a day after a similar attack shut operations at a US-run field.

“At 06:00 and 06:15 (0300 and 0315 GMT) two explosive-laden drones attacked” the Peshkabir oil field operated by the Norwegian oil group DNO, and at 7:00 am (0400 GMT) a similar drone struck the Tawke field in Zakho district,” Kurdistan’s counterterrorism services says. “Another attack at 7:14 am (0415 GMT) targeted a US-run oil field in Dohuk province. There were no reported casualties.”
