On 28 February 2026, following the 2026 Iran war, the Islamic Republic of Iran and allied Iran-aligned Shi'ite militias, primarily operating under the umbrella of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), launched a series of ballistic missile and drone attacks against the Kurdistan Region, Iraq.

Most of the attacks in Iraq, around 200 as of 11 March 2026, have focused on the Kurdistan Region. The area hosts the majority of US forces in Iraq after troops withdrew from several facilities in federal Iraq in recent years.
