A rocket attack near Baghdad International Airport has injured four people, Iraqi security officials said, as tensions continue to rise across the region.
Authorities reported that several rockets landed in areas close to the airport, triggering explosions and prompting an immediate response from security forces. The injured were taken to nearby hospitals, though officials did not immediately release details about their condition. Baghdad International Airport has been a frequent target of rocket attacks in recent years due to the presence of military facilities and foreign personnel in the surrounding area.
Security forces quickly moved to secure the scene, blocking off affected roads while investigators worked to determine the origin of the rockets. No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack. The incident comes amid heightened instability across the Middle East, where missile and drone attacks have been reported in multiple countries in recent weeks.
