U.S. Embassy in Baghdad receives a new Iranian air attack

International writing.- The U.S. embassy in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq, received a new Iranian air attack on Monday night, according to Iraqi security sources. Missiles and drones were launched against the diplomatic complex from areas near the city without any reported casualties. This attack follows one carried out last Saturday that caused smoke and flames to emerge from the building after the impact of a drone. From the delegation, located in the so-called Green Zone, activity of its C-RAM air defense system was observed against what were at least five drones, according to international media. This Monday, the embassy had again alerted U.S. citizens, through its X account, to “leave Iraq immediately due to recurrent attacks by terrorist militias aligned with Iran against U.S. interests.”

This new notice is part of a series of alerts issued since March 11, after a missile hit a helipad of the embassy and it issued the Level 4 travel warning of “Do not travel”, with the airspace closed and the evacuation of non-essential personnel. Meanwhile, US President Donald Trump insisted at a press conference from the White House that the war against Iran will end “soon”, although he ruled out the possibility of it ending this same week. Trump asserted, however, that since the beginning of the operation, christened by the Pentagon as ‘Epic Fury’, which began on February 28th, the U.S. has eliminated the navy, air force, and Iranian leadership.
