BAGHDAD -- Two military airbases housing the US-led coalition forces in Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdistan region and western Iraq were attacked by drones on Thursday.

A statement by Kurdistan's regional Counter-Terrorism Service said that a booby-trapped drone hit the Harir Airbase outside the city of Erbil, the capital of the Kurdish region, at 1615 GMT, setting fire to a fuel warehouse in the airbase.

An armed group named "Islamic Resistance in Iraq" claimed in an online statement that its fighters launched two drone attacks on the Harir Airbase

There are currently no reports of casualties as the coalition forces already withdrew from the airbase on Oct 20.
