A series of explosions struck the US embassy in Baghdad Saturday morning, reportedly killing two members of Iran-backed Kataeb Hezbollah group. Drone and rocket attacks targeted the diplomatic mission, with black smoke rising above the complex. The US embassy has not commented on the incident, which marks the second attack on the mission since the US-Iran conflict began. Tehran-backed Islamic Resistance in Iraq claims responsibility for daily drone and rocket strikes against US bases. The Saturday attack followed strikes that killed two Kataeb Hezbollah members, including a key figure.
