BAGHDAD – Missiles targeted a base near the international airport west of Baghdad that houses exiled Iranian opposition members, security sources said.
Camp Liberty is a former US military base housing members of the People’s Mujahedin of Iran, an opposition group that has been exiled since the 1979 Islamic revolution.
A spokesman for the Mujahedin said the attack was the worst to have targeted the camp so far.
“We were in our housing trailers when missiles started to fall…Not everybody managed to take shelter,” he said.
