  • Six peshmerga killed, 30 wounded in Iran missile strikes on Iraq’s Kurdistan region.

Iraq's autonomous Kurdistan region accused Iran on Tuesday of launching an attack against its peshmerga armed forces, following the deaths of six fighters.

"Six Iranian ballistic missiles targeted them" in two attacks, the region's armed forces ministry said in a statement, adding that the incident killed six people and wounded 30 others.

It is the first deadly attack on the regional security forces since the Middle East war began on February 28 with 'Israeli'-US strikes against Iran.
