Khor Mor Investigation Report Nears Completion as Iraq Prepares Final Announcement

Khor Mor Investigation Report dominated official discussions in Baghdad on Sunday as Iraqi authorities moved closer to releasing the final findings on last week’s attack at the Khor Mor gas field in Al-Sulaymaniyah province. The Interior Ministry confirmed steady progress, and officials stressed their intention to reveal the conclusions soon. Khor Mor Investigation Report remains a central topic as government teams finalize their assessments.

Brigadier General Muqdad Miri described the investigation as thorough and direct. He said the ministry formed a focused committee immediately after the incident. Moreover, he emphasized that the team completed its field visit after several intensive days on site. He added that the committee continues to refine the final document before presenting it to caretaker Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani. Once the prime minister reviews the conclusions, the government will announce the results. He also stressed that any circulating claims lack credibility because the official findings are still under review.

Furthermore, the attack gained international attention after US Envoy to Iraq Mark Savaya issued pointed remarks. Savaya blamed armed groups that, according to him, follow “hostile foreign agendas.” He stated that these groups operate illegally and threaten Iraq’s sovereignty. His message underscored rising concerns about unauthorized armed activity across the country. He warned that such groups undermine state institutions and weaken security.

The strike on November 26 shut down the entire Khor Mor facility. The incident triggered severe power shortages across the Kurdistan Region. Electricity supplies dropped sharply, and residents in several areas received only five hours of power daily. The Kurdish Ministry of Electricity reported a loss of 1,200 megawatts from the national grid due to the halt in Khor Mor production.

Investigators continue to examine whether a drone or missile carried out the attack. They confirmed that the strike hit a storage tank and ignited a fire. However, the blaze caused no casualties, and emergency teams contained the situation quickly. Local authorities coordinated closely with security units to prevent further damage.

Despite the disruption, production resumed on November 29. Technical teams and security forces worked together to stabilize operations. Their rapid response helped restore a degree of normalcy across the region. Officials described the restart as a significant step toward reducing the electricity deficit.

As Iraq prepares to release the final conclusions, Khor Mor Investigation Report remains at the center of public attention. The forthcoming announcement will likely shape political discussions and regional security assessments in the coming days.
