Drone hits northern Iraq gasfield, blasts reported in Iran’s Qeshm

(Al Jazeera Media Network) A drone attack of unknown origin has hit the Khor Mor gasfield in the Kurdish region of northern Iraq, causing an explosion and cutting off production.

And Iranian state media has reported that the US military fired “projectiles” at Qeshm Island in the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday night.

US President Donald Trump has said renewed strikes on Iran are “highly unlikely” if there is progress in negotiations over Tehran’s nuclear program and the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has warned that Tehran will “rain down hell” if fighting resumes.

Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) says three “rogue oil tankers travelling an unauthorised route” in the Strait of Hormuz have been hit by “explosions and severe fires”.
