Iranian forces have launched an operation targeting Kurdish groups in their semi-autonomous region of neighbouring Iraq, as they also began their 19th wave of missile and drone attacks against Israel and United States assets in the Middle East on the sixth day of a regional war that has embroiled much of the region in the conflict.

The Low-Cost Unmanned Combat Attack System, or LUCAS, is a one-way attack drone that looks nearly identical to the Iranian-designed Shahed. Russia has used Shaheds extensively against Ukraine and now fields its own domestically produced variant.
