Erbil International Airport in northern Iraq has been hit by an explosives-laden drone, the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) said, an unprecedented escalation in the types of arms used to target US soldiers based there. The military section of the airport where US-led international coalition forces are deployed was targeted in the attack on Wednesday. “A drone charged with TNT targeted a coalition base at Arbil’s airport,” the regional interior ministry said on Wednesday, adding that no one was hurt in the blast but a building was damaged.More Related News
