A rocket attack on an Iranian dissident camp in Iraq has killed six people and injured dozens.
UN officials confirmed the attacks on Camp Hurriya, a former US base, currently used by Mujahadin-e-Khalq (MeK), an Iranian group calling for regime change in Tehran.
In a statement on the website of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI), of which MeK is a member, said that the camp was attacked by missiles and mortars.
"Six residents including a woman have been slain and more than 50 were wounded. Some of the wounded are in serious condition and the number of slain might increase," the statement said.
The group complained that Iraqi authorities provided no support and have blocked the transportation of wounded to hospitals.
It is thought the attack was committed by the Badr Brigade, a Shia militant group believed to be close to the Iranian regime.
MeK was removed from the US list of proscribed terrorist organisations last year and have some support within Congress.
