In a small surprise (Type is not unexpected, but it seems that cells moved launchers reasonably close to the target, 7km was claimed), the rockets used to hit #Erbil seem to be the Haseb/Falaq-1/Fadjr-1 107mm artillery rockets made by Iran.

I don't understand how people are acting mystified about how these were launched so close to Erbil- wouldn't regard it as that hard to get a covert vehicle launcher like this in the area, even easier if 2-6 tube portable launchers, easily fabricated

aaand pics of the launcher(s)- as I suspected at least 2 launchers, one 10 tube & another 8 tube, for a total of at least 18 rockets fired, minus at least 3 that didn't fire.

V. similar to other launchers seen last yr. And the Iranian rockets, ofc- made 2015, MJ-1 pattern fuzes.

Vehicle the launchers were mounted on seems to have been yeeted into a wall then burnt, as one does (Quite typical)

I am _not_ doing TSE from afar but looks to me that we r looking at a truck with a 2x 10-tube "pod" possibly independently rotatable, w/ at least another 8-tube pod (or 2x 8-tube for all I know) too, able to fire onto multiple POI from 1 position. Or fixed & they moved the Bongo
