The Iraqi Defense Ministry stated on Wednesday that a camp in the vicinity of Baghdad International Airport has been hit by a rocket attack.
In a statement released by the ministry, it was expressed that “a Katyusha rocket landed on the Al-Nasr camp in the vicinity of Baghdad International Airport in the capital.”
No casualties were reported in the statement or other sources.
Al-Nasr camp is one of the military sites where advisers to the US-led international coalition against the Daesh/ISIS terror group are located.
Within a week, attacks have been conducted against US-led coalition bases in Iraq including the attack on Wednesday, which came amid tension over the presence of US-led forces in Iraq.
Both Iraq and the international coalition announced the official end of the combat mission of coalition forces in the country on December 9.
Aside from retaining US advisers and trainers to assist Iraqi security forces, Baghdad and Washington agreed to withdraw all US combat forces from Iraq by the end of 2021, according to a decision on July 26.
Washington has been leading an international coalition against the Daesh/ISIS terrorist group since 2014.
