Mortar Attacks 'Kill Several' at Iran Exile Camp in Iraq

BAGHDAD: Mortar attacks on a camp housing Iranian dissidents near Baghdad killed a number of people early on Saturday, an Iraqi security official and a United Nations spokeswoman said.
The mortars "led to a number of deaths and injuries among the residents," said Eliana Nabaa, spokeswoman for the UN mission in Iraq. "Also a number of Iraqi policemen were injured... We cannot confirm exactly how many."
An interior ministry official, speaking on condition of anonymity, put the toll at five dead and 40 wounded.
