One person was killed and several wounded in a bombing of a military base in Iraq this night, reported France Press, quoted by BTA, referring to representatives of the security forces.
The target of the attack, carried out against the background of the explosive situation in the region, was the base "Kalso" in the central Iraqi province of Babil, used by the coalition of pro-Iranian militias "Hashd al-Shaabi" (Popular Mobilization Forces), which is now part of the regular Iraqi army.
For now, not many details are known about the attack. From "Hashd ash Shaabi" confirmed that people were injured and property damaged in the explosion.
The US military said it did not launch strikes in Iraq yesterday.
"We do not comment on information that has appeared in foreign media, the Israeli army responded succinctly to AFP's request for comment.
The agency noted that the attack came amid ongoing diplomatic efforts to prevent a regional conflict in the Middle East, at a time when the war in the Gaza Strip continues and tensions between Israel and Iran have led to an exchange of strikes.
