Two rockets hit Taji military base, north of Baghdad
The US-led Coalition has confirmed that Iraq's Taji Base came under a rocket attack on Saturday.
“On Aug 15, appx 9:15pm, two small rockets landed near Taji base. No coalition troops near impact,” Col. Myles B. Caggins III, spokesman for the U.S-led coalition, said on Twitter.
On March 11, 2020, 15 rockets landed on Camp Taji, killing two Americans and one British soldier from the Royal Army Medical Corps. The attack left 14 other US soldiers, contractors and coalition personnel wounded, five of them critically. One of the coalition wounded was identified as a Polish soldier.
On March 14, 2020, another rocket attack took place at Camp Taji; over 25 107mm caliber rockets struck the coalition compound and the Iraqi Air defenses installation, this time wounding five coalition soldiers and two Iraqi soldiers. Iraqi forces subsequently found seven Katyushka rocket launchers with 24 unlaunched rockets.
