US embassy in Baghdad targeted in drone attack

MISSILES were fired at the US embassy in Baghdad yesterday, in the latest attack on Washington’s occupation forces in Iraq since they killed four anti-Isis fighters and a child last week.
“Early on the morning of July 6, defensive systems at the US embassy compound in Baghdad engaged and eliminated an airborne threat,” the embassy confirmed in a statement.
No casualties were reported after the facility was targeted by several drones, which activated anti-aircraft systems.
