Operations at the Khor Mor gas facility in Iraq’s Kurdistan region have been temporarily halted following a drone strike on Sunday evening. The UAE-based energy firm, Dana Gas, confirmed that the attack triggered a fire, though it was quickly contained by emergency crews. Fortunately, the company reported that there were no casualties among its staff, and they are currently focused on evaluating the extent of the infrastructure damage before resuming production.

Local authorities in Kurdistan have condemned the incident as an act of terrorism, noting that the strike has significantly disrupted the regional power grid. According to the Ministry of Electricity, the shutdown has impacted roughly 2.8 gigawatts of power generation capacity. While no group has come forward to claim responsibility, Dana Gas is working closely with both the Kurdistan Regional Government and Iraqi federal officials to stabilize the site and restore operations as quickly as possible.
