At least a dozen mortar shells last night hit the area, where the diplomatic headquarters of the US and Great Britain, and the most important offices of the government of Prime Minister Nuri al Maliki are located.

It is yet unknown if the attack left any casualty or material damage, the sources added. The Green Zone, on the west side of the Tigris River, is the most guarded place in the Arab country, however it has been the target of several attacks with rockets and mortars in the last days.
