Drone launched at gas field in Iraqi Kurdistan causes explosion, halts production
A drone attack on the Khor Mor gas field in Iraq’s Kurdistan region has halted production, disrupting electricity supplies across the region. The strike hit a gas storage facility in Sulaimaniyah governorate, causing a fire and sending black smoke into the air. Kurdish authorities say the disruption has taken between 2,500 and 2,800 megawatts of electricity generation off the grid, prompting efforts to prevent a total blackout. Emergency measures include using hydroelectric power stations and alternative fuels to maintain supplies, particularly to hospitals and water treatment plants. The attack comes amid heightened regional tensions and follows a previous drone strike on the same facility, which was blamed on pro-Iranian armed factions. However, no group has claimed responsibility, and it remains unclear who carried out the latest attack or whether it is connected to the wider US-Iran conflict.Al Jazeera’s Peter Smith reports from Baghdad.
