Dozens of rockets slammed into an Iraqi base north of Baghdad Saturday wounding 3 American and 2 Iraqi troops. It’s the same base where 2 Americans and a British Army medic were killed in a rocket attack Wednesday prompting US airstrikes on Iranian-backed forces blamed for the attack. US FORCES LAUNCH STRIKES TARGETING IRAN-BACKED MILITIAS AFTER DEADLY ROCKET ATTACK, OFFICIAL SAYSA U.S. military spokesman says at least 25 rockets hit Camp Taji today in the brazen attack which occurred in broad daylight, which is rare. Wednesday’s attack was the most deadly for U.S. troops since late December when an American interpreter was killed at a base in northern Iraq. Days later the U.S. military killed Iran’s most powerful general Qassem Soleimani in a drone strike.
