Mortars hit Iraq's Balad air base: military sources

Two mortars landed inside Iraq's Balad airbase on Thursday, two Iraqi military sources said. No casualties have been reported in the mortar attack against the airbase, said the sources.

Balad base hosts U.S. forces and contractors and is located about 80 kilometers (50 miles) north of Baghdad. On Tuesday, five rockets landed on Ain Al-Asad airbase, which hosts U.S. forces in Anbar province in western Iraq without causing any casualties.
