Iranian Kurdish opposition parties based in Iraq are facing a delicate balance as their bases have been heavily attacked by Iranian drones and missiles since the US-Israel strikes on Iran began on February 28. Despite suggestions from US President Donald Trump and Israel about arming these groups, most deny receiving military assistance from the US or other countries. Leaders from the Komala Party of Iranian Kurdistan reported 13 fighters killed, while the Kurdistan Freedom Party of Iran estimates its bases have been attacked over 80 times. These groups express skepticism about US intentions, believing the goal is to weaken Iranian influence rather than achieve regime change, and are under pressure from the Iraqi Kurdistan Regional Government to limit their activities.
