In the last hour there were reports of at least five rockets fired at Camp Taji in northern Iraq home of US military personnel.
It now appears it is likely a siren test?
Also false alarm. No rockets hitting Camp Taji, looks like it was siren test. https://t.co/6IA3gZHZ2K

False alarm.
More unconfirmed/false reporting:#IRGC backed Kataib Hezbollah launched 5 107mm unguided rockets at Camp #Taji where the #US Military Forces are present.
Reported "attack" on Camp Taji may have been a test of the camp's alarm. There are no verified reports of damage.
