A drone attack has wounded six French soldiers in Erbil in Iraq’s autonomous Kurdistan region, AFP quotes the French military as saying.
The troops were “engaged in training activities on counterterrorism with Iraqi partners”, a member of the general staff told AFP, adding the troops were taken to the nearest medical facility.
The governor of Erbil said the strike involved two drones and occurred at a base in Mala Qara, located around 40 kilometres from the regional capital.
