    3 Rockets hit Green Zone

    https://www.timesofisrael.com/3-rock...sy-in-baghdad/

    Three rockets landed inside the heavily fortified Green Zone in Baghdad, Iraq, home to the US Embassy and the seat of Iraq’s government, city residents said on Sunday.
    Alert sirens were sounded in the area on the west bank of the Tigris River.

    Police sources told Reuters that the projectiles were Katyusha rockets. Witnesses told AFP they saw two rockets hit near the US embassy.

    There were some injuries to civilians, local media reported.
    The attack came shortly after the deadline from a hardline pro-Iran faction for local troops to get away from US forces, following the US airstrike in Baghdad on Friday that killed top Iranian general Qassem Soleimani and a high-ranking Iraqi militia leader.
    The vehemently anti-American group Kataeb Hezbollah had warned Iraqi security forces to “get away” from US troops at joint bases across Iraq by 5 p.m.

    Yes, but there was another one today.

    US embassy in Baghdad hit by rocket attack

    Three rockets slammed into the US embassy in Iraq's capital on Sunday in the first direct hit reported after months of close calls, as thousands kept up anti-government sit-ins across the country.

    The attack marked a dangerous escalation in the spree of rocket attacks in recent months that have targeted the embassy or Iraqi military bases where American troops are deployed.

    None of the attacks has been claimed but Washington has repeatedly blamed Iran-backed military factions in Iraq.

    On Sunday, one rocket hit an embassy cafeteria at dinner time while two others landed nearby, a security source told AFP.
