Standard Media Website, 9 Feb 2012 – Several people have been killed in a mortar attack on a camp housing Iranian exiles in central Iraq, officials say.
A UN spokeswoman confirmed there had been a number of deaths at Camp Hurriya, a former US military base near Baghdad used by members of the People’s Mujahideen Organisation of Iran (PMOI).
The PMOI said on its website that six residents had been killed and more than 50 wounded, some of them seriously.
It complained that it was being stopped from taking the wounded to hospital.
