Massive Fire Breaks Out At US Diplomatic Compound Near Baghdad Airport

Eyewitness images shared on March 21 showed a massive fire at a US diplomatic facility near Baghdad airport in Iraq.

The images show a huge fire followed by dark columns of smoke rising into the sky.

Iraqi security sources said the fire was reported after renewed drone attacks on the US diplomatic compound near Baghdad airport.

At least three attacks were also reportedly on this diplomatic facility, with a fire breaking out after the third attack.

The pro-Iranian militia group Ashab al-Kahf has claimed responsibility for the attacks on the US diplomatic compound in a statement.
