BAGHDAD: A missile struck a house used by the powerful Iran-backed group Kataeb Hezbollah in Iraq’s capital Baghdad on Saturday, killing one person and wounding two others, a security source told AFP.
AFP journalists heard loud bangs in the capital followed by ambulance sirens, with witnesses saying they saw smoke rising from an area in the city’s center.
A security source said “a projectile fell on a house wounding two people,” in the neighborhood of Arasat, where several Iran-backed groups are known to be present, without being able to determine the type of the projectile.
Another security source confirmed two people were injured.
