Drone strike hits US diplomatic facility in Iraq, reports Washington Post

A drone struck a major U.S. diplomatic facility near Baghdad airport on Tuesday, with five other drones reportedly shot down. The attack is suspected to be retaliation by pro-Tehran militias over U.S.-Israeli actions against Iran. An internal State Department alert indicated individuals were ordered to duck and cover after the drone hit near a guard tower.
