"A security source reported a strike on the US Embassy's logistics center located at Baghdad International Airport," the authors noted. It is still unclear what was used in the attack: rockets or mortars. Another strike was carried out on the headquarters of the Counter-Terrorism Agency, located near the airport. The article did not provide information about the victims. As reported by the Regnum news agency, on the night of February 3, the United States struck 85 targets of pro-Iranian groups in Iraq and Syria. The operation followed an attack on an American base in Jordan, which killed three US servicemen. US strikes in western Iraq's Anbar province have killed 16 people. Despite US claims that the strikes were coordinated with Iraq's leadership, Iraqi government spokesman Bassem al-Awadi said such reports were false. The Iraqi government called the strikes an act of blatant aggression, and the Syrian authorities also condemned them. The Iraqi parliament called on the government to speed up the withdrawal of Western military contingents from the country. | |
