The US condemns tonight’s Iranian attacks in Iraqi Kurdistan.

“We oppose Iran’s reckless missile strikes, which undermine Iraq’s stability,” says US State Department spokesman Matt Miller in a statement.

“We support the Government of Iraq and the Kurdistan Regional Government’s efforts to meet the aspirations of the Iraqi people,” Miller adds.
