Baghdad: Two unmanned aerial vehicles crashed in Iraq, authorities said, with no human casualties or material damage reported.

A security source said Tuesday a booby-trapped drone was found near a power station in the southwest of Kirkuk Province and another one in Al Muthanna Province in the country's south.

Over the past weeks, Iraq has come under a flurry of Iranian drone attacks, with the vast majority of them targeting Western interests in Baghdad, while others struck service facilities in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
