TL;DR Summary

Rockets have reportedly been fired towards the US embassy in Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone, which houses the institution. The attack comes amid ongoing attacks on US troops and installations in the region due to Washington's support of Israel's bombardment of Gaza. It is unclear if there were any injuries or if the embassy's air defense systems were activated. Iraqi groups supporting Palestinians have vowed retaliation against Israel and the US, while the US has accused Iran of facilitating attacks by Iranian-backed proxy groups. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack on the embassy.
