UPDATE: (Reuters) – At least 22 people were killed and 50 others wounded in a rocket and mortar attack against a U.S. military base in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, a defense official at the Pentagon said on Tuesday.
UPDATE: AP – The Ansar al-Sunnah Army claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement on the Internet. It said the attack was a “martyrdom operation” targeting a mess hall in the al-Ghizlani camp.
Most reports claim that the dining hall came under rocket or mortar attack, so it’s unclear how this was a “martyrdom” operation.
