Missiles being launched towards Al Asad Airbase in Iraq - Fox News
|There have been a number of rumours floating around that there has been a missile attack on an Iraqi Armed Forces and the United States armed forces base located in Al Anbar Governorate of western Iraq.
If true and certified, this could be an escalation to rock markets. The base is also used by UK forces in Iraq. It was the second-largest US military airbase in Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom.
UPDATE at time of writing:
US forces in Iraq are under "missile attack from Iran," senior U.S. military source says, according to Fox News.
