The US base at Erbil International Airport was attacked on Saturday midnight with booby-trapped drones.

A source in the Iraqi Counter-Terrorism Service in Erbil governorate said in a telephone conversation with SANA reporter in Baghdad that “three drones hovered around Erbil Airport at midnight before the US air wing at the airport was attacked by a drone, which resulted in damages of which the details are being scrutinized.” .

The source added that air traffic at the airport was suspended and all roads leading to it were closed.
