Iraq, Armed Conflict / War, Level 3: Attack by Iranian forces amid conflict between Israel and Iran – Iraq [Update 7]

Update 2025-06-24 (3): Contrary to earlier media reports, there does not appear to have been an Iranian attack on the US base at Ain al-Assad. According to recent media reports, debris from an Iranian missile, which was fended off by Israel, may have falsely triggered an alarm.

Update 2025-06-24 (2): Following the Iranian attacks on US bases, the Iraqi authorities have completely closed the country’s airspace. Previously, flights to and from Basra International Airport (BSR) were still permitted.

Update 2025-06-24 (1): According to the report from Tuesday (24 June), several foreign oil firms, including BP, TotalEnergies, and Eni, evacuated some staff from the southern part of the country as a precaution amid rising regional tensions, while oil production remains unaffected.
