ERBIL, Kurdistan Region of Iraq – Kurdish authorities are in talks with Baghdad over compensation for those affected by recent drone and rocket attacks in Kurdistan, Erbil’s governor said on Thursday, following the Iraqi cabinet’s approval of measures to allocate funds to victims days earlier.

“Data on damage caused by drone strikes has been collected and prepared from all governorates, and we are in discussions with Baghdad to ensure all those affected are compensated,” Erbil Governor Omed Khoshnaw told The New Region.

On Tuesday, Iraq’s Council of Ministers approved the allocation of funds to be disbursed to the families of the dead and the wounded of the recent military attacks on Iraqi territory, “including victims in the Kurdistan Region.”

According to the latest numbers from the Kurdistan Regional Government’s (KRG) Media and Information Office, the Region has faced 809 attacks since the onset of the US-Israeli war on Iran in late February.

The attacks resulted in the death of 20 residents and injured 123 others.

The Kurdistan Region’s capital of Erbil saw the largest number of strikes, with 726 residents reporting damage to private property, including homes, vehicles, and workplaces. Sulaimani came second at 24 attacks on civilian sites and dozens of residents were impacted. Tens of residents of Duhok and the Soran administration also suffered damage.

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq, a network of pro-Iran Iraqi militias linked to Iran’s powerful Revolutionary Guards (IRGC), has claimed responsibility for most of the attacks on Erbil.

The IRGC has also claimed responsibility for numerous attacks on refugee camps belonging to Iranian Kurdish opposition parties across the Region. Many of which took place following a ceasefire announcement days prior.

Kurdish authorities have continuously condemned the attacks launched by the Iraqi militias on the Region, while calling on Baghdad to control the “outlaw groups” and prevent the recurrence of strikes.
