Relevant security authorities announced the execution of a series of precise airstrikes by Iraqi warplanes targeting hideouts belonging to terrorist gangs in the areas bordering the Kurdistan Region. This operation came in response to armed clashes that erupted during a
search of the area, resulting in the martyrdom of a special forces officer and the elimination of a terrorist element. The strikes were carried out based on verified intelligence and highly coordinated efforts among various security commands. Security forces confirmed
their ongoing commitment to conducting offensive operations and pursuing terrorist remnants, noting that the extent of enemy losses will be announced upon the completion of field inspections and assessments.
