The missile strike did not result in any American casualties, officials said
Iran fired a series of missiles toward the U.S. consulate in Erbil, Iraq, on Sunday, according to U.S. officials.
The missiles, according to a senior U.S. official, were fired towards the U.S. consulate in Erbil from Iran. Of the multiple missiles that were fired, the official said, none made contact with the consulate.
Officials said all U.S. personnel are accounted for and that no casualties have been reported after the airstrike near the unmanned consulate in Erbil, the capital of the autonomous Kurdish region of northern Iraq.
A national security official told Fox News that there is no indication the missile were intended for U.S. facilities.
The last time missiles were fired from inside Iran was Jan 2020 after the Soleimani strike when Al Assad Air Base was the target, an official told Fox News.
