Latest News of Iraq-US; Three Rockets Hit the US Embassy in Baghdad

News24xx.com - Three rockets hit the US embassy in the Iraqi capital on Sunday.

The attack marked a dangerous escalation in recent months. The attacks targeted Iraqi embassies or military bases where American troops were deployed.

No other attacks have been claimed, but Washington has repeatedly blamed Iran-backed military factions in Iraq.

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

The US embassy did not immediately respond to the attack. Iraqi security forces only said there were no casualties.
