A rocket hit the US Embassy in Baghdad on Friday evening. The missile struck a helicopter landing pad in the sprawling compound that Iranian-backed militants have repeatedly targeted since the start of the conflict in the Middle East.
The shell penetrated Baghdad's heavily fortified "Green Zone," home to Iraqi government buildings and foreign embassies, in the latest attack on one of the largest U.S. diplomatic facilities, two security officials told The Associated Press.
Smoke was seen rising from the diplomatic mission in a video posted on social media by Sabereen News, a pro-Iranian militia outlet in Iraq.
The attack came shortly after two fighters belonging to an Iran-backed militant group were killed in Baghdad, AFP reported, citing sources.
