Colonel Ali Jamal Qaduri, the official spokesperson for the Directorate of Asayish, told Shafaq News that an explosion was heard in the afternoon, and after reaching the scene of the incident, it became clear that a drone had targeted a two-story building in the "Shahidan" neighborhood of Kalar district.

Information received by Shafaq News Agency indicates that the targeted building belongs to the Kurdistan Freedom Movement (KFM), which is affiliated with the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), a militant group opposed to the Turkish government.

The PKK has been engaged in an armed struggle against the Turkish government for decades. The Turkish government has carried out numerous airstrikes against PKK targets in the Kurdistan Region in recent years.
