Al-Sulaymaniyah: No drone strike at Khor Mor
Shafaq News – Al-Sulaymaniyah
A controlled explosion near the Khor Mor gas field on Sunday briefly sparked confusion, as local authorities dismissed initial reports of a drone strike.
Sadiq Mohammed, director of the Qader Karam subdistrict in Chamchamal, al-Sulaymaniyah province, told Shafaq News the 10:20 a.m. blast was part of a scheduled demining operation, coordinated in advance with the local administration and Asayish security forces.
Early speculation pointed to a drone crash, fueling concern given Khor Mor's strategic role as a major gas production hub operated by UAE-based Dana Gas.
