The Iraqi Foreign Ministry will call the US Charge d’Affaires.

The Iraqi Foreign Ministry summons the US Charge d’Affaires in Baghdad to present him with a note of protest over American strikes on Iraqi territory, the Iraqi Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

Earlier, the Iraqi government said that 16 people were killed in American strikes on the country’s territory, and 25 were injured. It also stressed that the US statement about coordinating strikes with Iraq is a lie, and US airstrikes constitute naked aggression.

“As a sign of protest against American aggression against Iraqi civilian and military targets, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs summons the Charge d’Affaires of the US Embassy in Baghdad … to present him with an official note of protest in connection with the American attack on civilian and military targets,” the Iraqi Foreign Ministry said.
