Fragments of a ballistic missile landed in Iraq’s Babil province on Sunday without causing casualties or property damage, the province’s Media Crisis Cell announced, amid continued regional security tensions.
In a statement, the cell indicated that specialized teams located a rocket warhead in the Al-Siyaha area, after which security forces sealed the site while technical units began procedures to secure the location and safely remove the missile remnants to protect nearby residents.
