A rocket attack on Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone has reportedly killed three foreign security workers and injured 15 more.
Dead are two Ugandans and a Peruvian, while two Americans were among those wounded when the rocket struck today.
According to the BBC, the dead and wounded are all employees of the US contractor Triple Canopy.
In September last year, several mortars or rockets landed in the Green Zone near the United States Embassy, during a visit by United States Vice-President Joe Biden.
