Erbil, Kurdistan Region — Prime Minister of the Kurdistan Region, Masrour Barzani, conducted a field visit to inspect the ongoing work on the Derbandi Komspan–Smaquli road project, a major infrastructure development aimed at enhancing connectivity between Erbil and Sulaimani provinces.

The Prime Minister commended the efforts of the engineering and technical teams, as well as the labor force of Heman Group, the company responsible for executing the project. He praised the rapid pace of progress and the team’s commitment to professional standards and technical specifications.

"This is a strategic project that will facilitate transportation between two major provinces and contribute to regional development," Barzani stated during the visit.
