14 Killed, 93 Injured: One Month of Iran-Linked Attacks in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq
CPT-IK Report: 30 March 2026
As of 27 March 2026, 474 attacks had been carried out within the Kurdistan Region. Of these, the IRGC conducted 179 attacks, while affiliated groups in Iraq carried out 295.
Although the IRGC and its affiliated groups claim to target U.S. bases, intelligence facilities, and armed groups, CPT-IK has observed that, alongside U.S. consular and military sites and Iranian Kurdish opposition parties, civilian residential areas and civilian and official institutions of the Kurdistan Regional Government have also been targeted, despite having no connection to the war of the United States and Israel against Iran.
From 28 February to 29 March 2026, Iran-linked attacks resulted in 107 total casualties: 14 killed and 93 injured. Of these, 19 were civilians, all of whom were injured.
In addition to human casualties, the attacks damaged at least 46 civilian homes and 32 civilian vehicles. The threat posed by these attacks has also led to the suspension of education in schools, institutes, and universities.
