Explosion in Iraq targets US convoy

A bomb explosion has targeted a logistics convoy belonging to the US-led coalition forces in Iraq’s northern province of Salahuddin.

Iraq's Arabic-language al-Sumaria TV network reported that a roadside bomb struck the convoy at noon on Wednesday.

There were no reports of casualties and damage from the attack.

American terrorist forces stationed in Iraq have been targeted on a number of occasions.

On Tuesday, three mortar shells landed inside Baghdad’s Green Zone, which houses government buildings and foreign missions, including the US embassy.

Anti-American sentiments have been running high in Iraq since the US assassinated Iran’s anti-terror commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, and the deputy head of Iraq's Popular Mobilization Units, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, in Baghdad on January 3.

Just two days later, Iraqi lawmakers unanimously passed a bill mandating the withdrawal of all foreign troops from Iraq.
