SULAIMANI — Rockets were fired at Dana Gas's Khor Mor field in Chamchamal district, Sulaimani province, on Monday (July 25).

A source inside the company told NRT the rockets targeted the area between the company and the expansion area where Dana Gas is about to extract natural gas.

The source also said the rockets hit an important site in the field but no one was hurt and there has been no material damage reported so far.

This is the fifth time the field has been targeted by rockets. A previous attack occurred on June 26, which resulted in suspending the expansion operations in the field.

Oil and energy expert Mohammed Hussein told Voice of America (VOA) on June 29 that Dana Gas company is producing 452 million cubic feet of gas daily in the field and was planning to add 250 million by 2026.
