Iraq mourns its dead after worst strike against its army since the start of the war: Why did the Americans attack us?'

"The base was reduced to rubble and craters on Wednesday after being struck by two missiles. Officer Abdullah was in the clinic with several colleagues at 9 a.m. when he heard a loud bang, followed by another."

"This attack, which resulted in seven deaths, is the worst suffered by Iraqi troops since the United States and Israel began their war against Iran on February 28."

"The Ministry of Defense has openly accused Washington and maintains that it fully reserves the right to take all necessary measures to respond to this aggression in accordance with approved legal frameworks."

"Most of the dead fell from bullets, several wounded interviewees confirmed. Those still hospitalized have skull fractures, broken ribs, shrapnel that has perforated organs, and numerous broken bones."

An airstrike on the Iraqi army base in Habbaniyah caused significant destruction, resulting in seven deaths and 23 injuries. Officer Abdullah was trapped under debris after the attack. The Iraqi Ministry of Defense accused the U.S. of aggression, while Washington denied targeting the clinic. The incident has heightened tensions, with the Baghdad government summoning the U.S. charge d'affaires. Medical reports indicate severe injuries among the wounded, including skull fractures and shrapnel wounds, reflecting the attack's brutality.
