Iraq vows penalties on perpetrators of Khor Mor attack; air defense deployment to ‘50 locations’

ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - The Iraqi prime minister’s spokesperson on Tuesday vowed to identify perpetrators of the attack on Khor Mor - the Kurdistan Region’s largest gas field - and refer them to the judiciary, adding that the investigation intended to establish whether the latest attack was connected to preceding incidents. He also disclosed Iraq’s planned air defense deployment to “more than 50 locations,” including sites in the Kurdistan Region.

“If the party and the launch areas are identified, it may be possible to link it to previous attacks,” Sabah al-Numan told Rudaw's Rebwar Ali, adding that the committee was authorized to summon those suspected of involvement.

Numan described the strike on Sunday as a “criminal assault” aimed at “undermining the Kurdistan Region's unity and obstructing public order.”

“This incident affected Iraq, not only the Kurdistan Region,” he said, describing the Region as an important part of Iraq whose stability and security must be protected.

Sunday's attack on Khor Mor struck a gas storage unit at the field in Chamchamal district, west of Sulaimani, triggering a major fire and forcing the suspension of production, according to Rudaw's reporting on the ground.
