Two rockets were fired towards the Green Zone where the US embassy is located in Baghdad on Saturday night, according to Iraq's Security Media Cell.

The C-RAM defense system was activated to intercept the rocket fire. One rocket was intercepted, while a second rocket fell near the Grand Festivities Square near the Green Zone, causing damage to two civilian vehicles.
