Washington recently announced a deal with Iraq to end the US military mission in the country, which is said to include troop withdrawals from a number of bases
A US facility near Baghdad International Airport was targeted with rockets early on 1 October.
Two Iraqi security sources told Reuters that Katyusha rockets were fired at a base that hosts troops near Baghdad airport.
The two sources said a preliminary investigation showed that three rockets were fired, including one which hit near buildings used by Baghdad’s counterterrorism service. Vehicles were damaged and caught fire, yet there were no casualties, they said.
A US defense official told Reuters later on 1 October that “All military personnel are accounted for and military forces were not targeted as had been reported.”
As tensions soar across the region, particularly in the aftermath of the Israeli assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and as Iraq-based resistance groups have stepped up attacks against Israel, Iraqi military forces and resistance factions have reportedly been on high-alert.
