The Erbil-based Directorate General of Counter Terrorism (CTD), also known as Kurdistan CT, said in a statement on Facebook that an oil field located in Duhok province’s Shekhan district was struck with an explosive-laden drone at 7:10 pm, local time.
"Apart from material damage, there were no casualties," added the CTD.
