Shafaq News / Four separate attacks targeted the Global Coalition in Iraq in less than 24 hours.

A security Source said, an explosion occurred today Wednesday when an explosive device blew up targeting a convoy carrying logistical support equipment for the US-led Coalition in Balad district, Saladin Governorate.

Another Source told Shafaq News Agency that an explosive device blew up targeting a convoy on the international highway, in Al-Anbar Governorate.

Meanwhile, another device blew up hitting a convoy in Babel. The same convoy was targeted again later.

The attacks caused no causalities.

 There was no claim of responsibility

Earlier, the Iraqi authorities issued warnings of repeated targeting of foreign forces and diplomatic missions in the country.

On January 5, the Iraqi parliament voted by majority to end the foreign military presence on the country's territory, following the killing of the Iranian Quds Force commander, Qassem Soleimani, and the deputy head Al-Hashd Al-Shaabi, Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis, in an American airstrike near Baghdad International Airport.

Washington accuses armed Iraqi factions linked to Iran of being behind the attacks.
