BAGHDAD, March 11 (Xinhua) -- At least 10 rockets on Wednesday landed on a military base housing U.S. forces in north of the Iraqi capital Baghdad, the Iraqi military said.
The attack took place in the evening when the rockets hit al-Taji Camp, some 20 km north of Baghdad, where some U.S. troops stationed, without causing casualties, the media office affiliated with the Iraqi Joint Operations Command said in a statement.
The Iraqi security force found a truck, carrying a rocket launcher with three unfired rockets, left in the nearby al-Rashdiyah area, the statement said.
No group has so far claimed responsibility for the attack, as the military bases housing U.S. troops across Iraq and the heavily fortified Green Zone in central Baghdad have been frequently targeted by insurgents' mortar and rocket attacks.
Over 5,000 U.S. troops have been deployed in Iraq to support the Iraqi forces in the battles against the Islamic State militants, mainly providing training and advising to the Iraqi forces.
