Baghdad:At least six people suffered injuries after six Katyusha rockets fell in Baghdad, Iraq on Sunday.

Three of the rockets fell inside the heavily fortified Green Zone housing government buildings and foreign missions, the Iraqi military said. The rest fell in the nearby Al-Jadriya area.

Earlier multiple rockets were launched in Baghdad's Al-Jadiriya area and outside Balad Airbase here, informed Iraqi Army official.
