A rocket attack that targeted an oil refinery in the Khabat area of Erbil on Sunday has been widely condemned.
Six rockets were fired at the Kawergosk refinery, which is owned by KAR Group, reportedly damaging a storage tank.
The Iraqi Security Media Cell said it located a launch base near the Al-Fadhiliah area of Bashiqa district, in the Nineveh Plain, where a further four missiles were rendered rendered harmless.
Shafaq quotes a source as saying that one person sustained minor injuries in the attack.
In March, the home of the CEO of KAR Group, Baz Karim Barzanji, was badly damaged in a rocket attack attributed to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC).
