Rockets Hit Baghdad Airport, Several Killed

(Baghdad) -- Nobody is yet claiming responsibility for a rocket attack at the Baghdad International Airport in Iraq.

Reuters reports five members of an Iranian-backed paramilitary group were killed, along with two "guests." Several others were hurt in the attack early Friday.

The three rockets hit near an air cargo terminal and burned two vehicles belonging to the group.

The attack comes after supporters of the paramilitary groups demonstrated at the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad earlier this week.
