On December 20, multiple rockets were launched by unknown gunmen at the Green Zone area in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad. The fortified area hosts the US embassy and Iraqi government buildings. US forces deployed in the area activated their C-RAM (Counter rocket, artillery, and mortar) systems to intercept the rockets. Nonetheless, at least a part of them fell in the area.
