According to The National, Ahmed Mufti, Deputy Minister for Natural Resources of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, dismissed claims made by Basim Al Badri, head of Iraq’s National Security Department, regarding potential Kurdish involvement in the Khor Mor gasfield attack as 'nonsense' during a Chatham House panel. Mufti expressed confidence in the investigation launched by Prime Minister Ali Al Zaidi and urged all parties to refrain from premature speculation. Al Badri had previously suggested the possibility of internal or foreign involvement. Majid Jafar, CEO of Crescent Petroleum, noted the severe impact of the attack, which left 10 million people without electricity and fuel, and called for concrete steps from the Iraqi government to identify and hold the perpetrators accountable.
