The AFP news agency has a statement from the Iraqi security forces on the rocket attack targeting a military base in Syria housing a US-led coalition.
The statement accused “outlaw elements of having targeted a base of the international coalition with rockets in the heart of Syrian territory” at about 9:50 pm (18:50 GMT), according to AFP.
In response, the Iraqi forces launched a major search operation in northern Nineveh province and found the vehicle used in the attack, the statement said.
The security forces burned the vehicle involved in the attack, it added.
