Breaking News: A volley of Rockets hit Iraq's airbase hosting US troops at Al Balad Airbase in Iraq.

Al Balad is the main airbase for Iraq's F-16 Fighter Aircraft, which it purchased from the US to upgrade its air defense capabilities and reinforce its strategic and geopolitical influence in the region.

The stock of cannons fell into the Iraqi air base north of Baghdad, where the US military was based as a consequence of tensions between the US and Iran following the killing of Qasim Soleimani who was an Iranian Major General in the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps

Eight Katyusha-type clothes landed at the al-Balad airbase, injuring two Iki officers and two airmen.

Al-Balad is the main airbase for Iraq's F-16, which it purchased from the US to upgrade its air defense capabilities.

"About 90 percent of America's advisers, and employees of Salport and Lockheed Martin, specializing in aircraft maintenance, have withdrawn Tazi and Erbil after the threat. As we know Lockheed Martin is the largest private company of the US having the biggest market share in making defense equipment. So such move could harm US interest in the region further it will also deter America's interest to bring about tranquillity and peace in the region which is very important for America both in terms of economy and polity.

Al-Balad had been placed near a small US Air Force contingent over the past two weeks due to tensions between the US and Iran, but the majority had been evacuated.

"Al-Balad has no more than 15 American soldiers and no aircraft," the source said.

Military bases hosting US troops have been subjected to rocket and mortar attacks in recent months, injuring most Iraqi forces, but also killing an American contractor last month.

That death set off a series of dramatic events, with the US carrying out attacks against a pro-Iran paramilitary group in Iraq as well as convoys carrying Iranian and Iraqi commanders outside Baghdad Airport.

Pro-Iran factions in Iraq have avenged those raids, even as Iran said it had already responded by attacking another Western airbase in "proportion" where US troops are located.

Such recurring Attacks can be a severe threat to America's presence in Iraq and Any action by America can further escalate the situation in the middle east.

As Iraq and Iran, both have a great Geopolitical significance due to its close proximity with Persian gulf And Isthmus of Hurmuz. Any Miscalculation by America can put the region in Upheaval. 

Rocket attacks against the high-security Green Zone of Baghdad, where the US and other embassies are based on international troops, are still occurring.

We Hope the US as a Super Power and a responsible state should take an appropriate steps forward to ease the situation by engaging in a round table conference with all countries at stake.
