BAGHDAD: Iraq on Monday condemned as “unacceptable” attacks against bases on its territory housing US forces, which have multiplied since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war.
Since Wednesday, at least five rocket and drone attacks have targeted three Iraqi military bases where American troops are stationed as part of the international coalition set up to fight the Daesh group.
“The attacks that target Iraqi bases that house advisers from the international coalition in Iraq are unacceptable,” Iraq’s military spokesman Yahya Rasool said in a statement.
