Iran Press/ Middle East: An Iraqi security official said that the Green Zone, in central Baghdad was targeted by several rockets fired, but the air defense systems in Iraq have intercepted the rockets.
The rockets hit a residential complex inside the Green Zone, damaging buildings and cars but causing no casualties, a military statement said.
Sirens blared from the embassy compound inside the zone, which houses government buildings and foreign missions.
An anti-rocket system diverted one of the rockets, said one security official whose office is inside the Green Zone.
A media outlet close to the Iraqi resistance has reported 11 rockets had hit the US embassy in Baghdad so far.
