BAGHDAD: A deadly attack struck a camp near Baghdad housing Iranian exiles on Saturday, the UN said, the second such assault on the group this year as its members await resettlement outside Iraq.
It was not immediately clear who was behind the attack involving at least half a dozen mortar rounds, which came as Iran tallied ballot papers from Saturday's presidential election there.
"I can confirm that there was a deadly attack," Eliana Nabaa, spokeswoman for the United Nations mission in Iraq, told AFP. "We don't have the figures but yes, people were killed and injured."
