Before the attacks on  Al-Assad and Ebril airbases on Wednesday, the Green Zone in Baghdad has been attacked twice previously. Iranian state TV had described the Wednesday attacks on Iraq as Tehran’s revenge operation over the killing of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Gen. Qassem Soleimani.

The new attack on Green Zone in Iraq comes after US President Donald Trump's briefing where he spoke about UNSC intervention for peace in Middle East.
