As Reuters reports, citing sources related to the security services, this is the most intense attack since the beginning of the war in the Middle East, which began on February 28 with the American-Israeli strike on Iran. In response, the Iranian military is attacking military and civilian targets in the region, including US bases and embassies.
As reported by AFP, at least one drone fell on the premises of a diplomatic mission; a black cloud of smoke rose above it after the explosion. Reuters reported on Tuesday night that a powerful explosion was heard in the Iraqi capital. AFP added that two people were killed in an airstrike on a house in Baghdad.
This is another attack on the US embassy in Iraq. On Saturday, Reuters reported that the facility was hit by an Iranian missile. On Monday evening, attacks and explosions occurred near the embassy building. Due to the drone strike, a fire broke out on the roof of a hotel near the facility, but it did not cause any losses or damage.
