Update from Rudaw at 9:40 p.m. RDT adds:

Iraq's Defense Ministry said four rockets landed inside Baghdad’s Green Zone early Thursday, the fifth such attack in 10 days.

No casualties resulted from the attack, and Iraq's Security Media Cell said security forces had recovered an abandoned rocket launcher near al-Rashid military base in southern Baghdad.

No group has claimed the attack, but the US has attributed past rocket attacks on sites of international importance to Iran-backed militias who it says are looking to further inflame US-Iran
Iran

...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both. They hate ~~Jews~~ ~~Zionists~~ Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
tensions.

This morning’s attacks come just two days after three Katyusha rockets landed close to Baghdad International Airport in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
