New missile and drone attacks have been carried out on Monday by the IRGC on the locations of the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan and the Komala Party in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.

Four of the missiles struck a base of the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan in Kuy-e Sanjaq in the region, while a separate drone attack hit another location pertaining to the same group near the Baharka Village in the region.

According to Sabereen News, the attacks raised alarms at the US Consulate in Erbil.

Consequently, the Komala Party's bases were destroyed in two locations near the city of Sulaymaniyah by the IRGC’s suicide drones. Local sources have reported that the series of attacks have resulted in a casualty toll of 26 members of the terrorist groups.

Tasnim News Agency reported on November 14 that the IRGC's Ground Force hammered separatist terror organizations' positions with numerous rocket launchers, precision-strike weaponry, and drones. Iran's Foreign Ministry affirmed that military action against separatist groups is legitimate retaliation for their violations against Iran's security and borders, and was done to protect national security.

"Our military retaliation is within international laws and is not a violation of Iraqi sovereignty," the ministry stressed.

This comes after the Komalah and Democrat terrorist groups attempted to infiltrate Iran through its border cities, with the IRGC stating: “These terrorists - who are backed by the global arrogance and are based in the Iraqi northern region – were forced to flee the country after accepting heavy casualties.”

In its statement, the IRGC stressed that officials of the Iraqi Kurdistan Region have been warned previously about the terrorist groups in the region but no attention was paid to the warnings and no preventative measures were taken. 

When the attacks began in September, the operation carried out by Tehran's forces was part of efforts to ensure "durable security" along the Iraqi-Iranian borders and "punish criminal terrorists", the IRGC clarified.
