Rockets target Peshmerga positions in Nineveh
|
[Rudaw] At least two rockets targeted Peshmerga positions in Nineveh province on Tuesday, stated the Kurdistan Region’s counter-terrorism, without resulting in any casualties or material damage.
The Directorate General of Counter Terrorism (CTD) said in a statement that the rockets were directed towards positions of the Peshmerga on Nineveh’s Nawaran front late Tuesday evening. One of the rockets landed in the mountainous areas of Sheikhan district, and the other landed in Tiskhrab village near Bashiqa before reaching the Peshmerga position.
The rockets, believed to have been launched from the Bazwa area in the vicinity of Bashiqa, did not result in any human casualties nor material damage, according to the statement.
There has not been any claim of responsibility as of yet.
Iraq and the Kurdistan Region have witnessed an increase in drone and missile attacks in recent months.
A drone targeted a car in Sulaimani's Kalar town carrying alleged members of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) on Friday, killing at least four.
Ottoman Turkish troops in Nineveh province frequently come under rocket attacks, with casualties rarely being inflicted. At least two rockets targeted Zilkan military base near Bashiqa district, which houses Ottoman Turkish troops, earlier this month.
