The security forces headquarters of the Kurdish armed group Kurdistan Freedom Party (PAK) were hit by drones on Friday afternoon, Iranian state media reported, and the group’s spokesman confirmed.
The base, located in northern Iraq, near Erbil, was targeted by two drones and two rockets, injuring four members of the PAK security forces, the spokesman said.
Videos of the attack showed thick plumes of smoke rising from the stricken base.
The spokesman could not confirm where the attacks came from, saying missile attacks usually come from Iran, while drone attacks sometimes come from pro-Iranian factions inside Iraq.

Since CNN reported that the CIA was working to arm Iranian Kurdish groups to foment insurgency inside Iran, Tehran has targeted these fighters more frequently and intensively, using some of its own missiles.
