Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi has called for “calm and restraint” after surviving an overnight attack on his residence on Sunday. At least six people were injured after three drones targeted the prime minister’s Green Zone residence. Security forces intercepted two of the drones.

Official security media: “A failed assassination attempt targeting PM Al Kadhimi via drone unfolded in the early hours of the morning in Baghdad. Several members of the PM’s security crew have been injured”. The PM has not been injured despite claims from sources close to him.
