Shafaq News/ the Special Representative for Iraq and Head of the United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) condemned on Thursday the explosives-laden drone’s attack that targeted Erbil International Airport.

“Last night’s events in the Kurdistan Region are another example of reckless attempts to inflame tensions and threaten Iraq’s stability. We condemn these acts of violence and urge the Federal and Kurdistan governments to act swiftly and in unison to prevent further escalation.” Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert said on Twitter.

Kurdistan’s Ministry of Interior said, on Wednesday evening, that an attack targeted Erbil International Airport was carried out with a drone.
