Rocket Salvo Hits Iraqi Base Hosting U.S. Troops (Photos)

Support SouthFront

UPDATE: 3 US-led coalition personnel were killed in the incident.

***

On March 11 afternoon, a rocket salvo hit the Iraq’s Camp Taji where troops of the U.S.-led coalition are known to be stationed.

Iraq’s Security Media Cell said ten rockets landed in the military camp, which is located in a rural region approximately 27 km north of the capital, Baghdad. From its side, the U.S.-led coalition said the camp was struck with fifteen rockets. Nevertheless, the attack didn’t result in any losses.

Within a few minutes, Iraqi security forces uncovered a rocket launcher with 40 107 mm barrels near Camp Taji. The launcher was installed in the back of Kia Bongo truck. Three rockets were still loaded into the launcher.


The last few months witnessed several rocket attacks on Iraqi bases hosting U.S. troops as well as on Washington’s diplomatic mission in Baghdad. Most of these attacks didn’t result in any losses.

The only deadly rocket strike targeted the K1 base on December 27 of 2019. A U.S. military contractor was killed. The U.S. military responded with a series of airstrikes on Iraq and Syria, killing dozens of Iraqi fighters.

The U.S. believe that Iraqi Shiite groups affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) were behind at least some of these rocket attacks. However, there is no evidence supporting these accusations, as for now.

Not that they would admit if there were casulties. Hope there werent.

S Melanson

There are casualties, 2 US and 1 Brit dead at least 11 wounded. Iran is suspected behind attack.

Shia man

Could you share source? I’m not expecting America to ever admit to casualties.

Google and filter for past hour, rocket attack Baghdad. There are many stories now coming out.

Shia man

Thanks btw this report is ridiculous so 2 US officials admit to causalities then say it’s not final report things may change later on Then Iraqi army comes out and says no causalities this is absolutely astonishing how can you straight lie about something you admitted too just the day before.

Shia man

They are either dead or not

Zionism = EVIL

Dead as a door nail :)

Zionism = EVIL

The Pentagon and the limey gits have just confirmed 3 dead, 2 Americunt arseholes and a Limey faggot. The real number is much higher as 37 122mm rockets were fired and all landed inside the Taji base.

JR

RT news

Guys get a grip and learn to google, all news wire reports have it.

Ricky Miller

RT is one of the most reliable international sources of information. They actually make an effort to get things right, which is way different than western MSM.

occupybacon

LOL except when something bad happens in Russia

Ricky Miller

Nope. RT was the first place I read about the Magnitogorsk apartment collapse and the Mall fires. It was a second source for the Su-25 shootdown and the Russian soldier who attacked and killed his fellow servicemen.

occupybacon

Me too but that’s because that events can’t be avoided by any tabloid, however I was referring more to the economy.

Zionism = EVIL

Rubbish, nothing to do with Iran, the Americunts and NATO faggots invaded Iraq and are killing millions and resistance is a natural consequences.

FlorianGeyer

Yes, I have just read that on Sputnik.

S Melanson

What are you hearing about any US response? Trump is addressing the nation at this moment. I plan to research into this after Trump, have been busy past few hours.

FlorianGeyer

Trump has just shut down any flights from Europe for 30 days :)

US Officials: 2 American troops, Briton killed in Iraq rocket attack

At least 10 wounded as barrage of Katyusha rockets hits Taji military base near Baghdad where US personnel are housed.

AM Hants

Allegedly 2 US Service Personnel and 1 UK, with casualties. They were asked to leave.

Zionism = EVIL

They are bringing in 105mm mountain howitzers from Afghanistan to support their alCIAda terrorists in Syria. The Americunts will face a major war of resistance in the whole region soon.

AM Hants

Saw that, the uninvited invaders bringing in heavy weapons.

FlorianGeyer

They will be leaving for home now :)

AM Hants

They have had a hissy fit first. Will need more body bags before they take the hint and demands to leave. I wonder why the need such a large Embassy in Iraq?

FlorianGeyer

The embassy compound in Iraq is a staging post for CIA black opps, drugs and arms trafficking globally.

“More than a million kilograms of cargo were shipped from Baghdad to different parts of the world, reveals US embassies procurement documents.

Mysterious cargo shipments from the US Embassy in Baghdad to other American embassies and consulates around the world have been revealed on a Wikileaks’ database. ”

https://gizadeathstar.com/2019/01/whats-the-new-us-embassy-in-baghdad-really-for/

AM Hants

I seriously do not understand why anybody would wish to host an Embassy for the US? Especially when Benghazi exposed so much of their dirty work.

Thanks for the link.

Oh. So you have a pattern of commenting “off topic”? Interesting. And you’ve been here for some time. Hmmnnn…..So, the question is….why???

AM Hants

Darling, as stated, I have been commenting on these forums since 2014, with over 150,000 upvotes, when combining my two user names. So the regulars are fully aware of my history, how I post and what concerns me, which funnily enough concerns many other posters. Some stories need sharing, when their are no articles covering the story, or it is not yet in the public domain.

Carry on with your 5 D script.

DENY DERAIL DISCREDIT DISAGREE DISCOURSE

AM Hants

By the way, I was replying to Florian and recommending an article he might not have seen.

What was your reason to but into our conversation?

Nanoko

Florian? What a beautiful name. Why was I responding to a public discussion? LOL I suggest you two swap inboxes if you require a private discussion. The jig is up, honey. For whatever reason you seem to want to disseminate information. I find it interesting actually. It’s so obvious and transparent.

FlorianGeyer

And the the Russian Meddling meme continues to this day. It just goes to show that the US is a mafia state’

AM Hants

They have only got one script to work with.

Have you seen the Global Research Article, with regards the C Virus timeline and where it originated from? Not into the virus, owing to believing it is man made and from the usual mobsters, but, did like the article below. Just be careful who you invite to staged events. You never know what gifts they provide.

The ‘truth will out’ in time and IF there is evidence that the virus was a deliberate act , the consequence’s will be dire.

Shia man

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s the resistance movement who has been carrying out these covert attacks which they promised https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Fm51gadpDzo

Zionism = EVIL

Dude, Iraqi army is 90% Shia and do you think they love the Americunt murdering cowards who are ripping off their oil and have killed a million civilians and destroyed a once prosperous nation.

Shia man

I understand what your saying but the resistance movement in Iraq the PMU and kitab Hezbollah is much stronger then the Iraqi army

d'Artagnan

US and NATO brutal occupation of Iraq is now well close to two decades and has brought nothing but misery for the Iraqi people and the region. Growing resistance is a natural consequence of US policies aimed at the destruction and destabilization of Arab and Muslim nations that challenge the Zionist monstrosity. It is surprising that a wider resistance is yet to take off.

d'Artagnan

The Zionists are dragging the US into the abyss with endless that only serve Zionist interests at the expense of the west.

Albert Pike

Looks like the same bullshit truck…

PZIVJ

The previous truck had 3 rows pointed towards the rear. This is a different design. Hit the launch button (maybe with time delay or cell phone call) and take off in another vehicle.

Albert Pike

Sure it’s a different truck, but again there is no adjustment of any horizontal angle possible. Therefore – it’s useless with that thing your rocket goes somewhere into no where. Also how do you make sure your truck is parked right? So no that’s all bull, that’s a fake for an escalation against Iran – who is, what a surprise – Corona sick…

PZIVJ

Perhaps they use a sextant, it works great in clear skies. ARG https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1f1af751a0649a5669c400cd9baf5094480899a8f2c84ff22580f8566ed8c9d9.jpg

Albert Pike

No I don’t see you as a troll. And this virus thing is a very sad story. Even many so called ‘truther’ talk a lot of bull about it. Even the ex CIA expert Robert Steel was and is calling it a fake. So if anybody fell for him, then he might have treated it as a fake, and took no precautions. Also Iran also has a masonic Hojjatieh Society, which has members in high places – so they might also know the concept of a masonic predetermined war. This, sadly, has to be always kept in mind…

nick1111

Get the f… out of Iraq

verner

good good and do it again and again till the fuckers lose faith – excellent concept, load the truck and position it for the attack fire away, walk away. wish they had better missiles/rockets and would aim for the americans in the green zone.

Assad must stay

bongo truck hahahahah wtf YANKEE GET OUT OF IRAQ!!!!
