Baghdad (FoxNews)- Rockets fired at a U.S. base southeast of Baghdad were manufactured in Iran, showing again that country's continued logistical support for insurgents inside Iraq, U.S. military officials said on Saturday.
Nobody was injured in the October 23rd attack on Combat Outpost Cashe, but one U.S. vehicle was damaged, officials said.
According to the military, the 107mm rocket was made in Iran sometime
in March. Troops investigating the launch site seized six rocket rails
- used to aim and launch the rockets, an unfired rocket and a timing
device.
The seized rocket is the 40th Iranian manufactured rocket that soldiers
have captured in the last four months, the military said.
