At least three Katyusha rockets landed in Baghdad’s heavily fortified Green Zone in an attack targeting the U.S. Embassy, two Iraqi security sources told Reuters.
My take: This attack bears the hallmarks of #Iran-backed militia groups in Iraq. https://uk.reuters.com/article/iraq-security/rockets-targeting-u-s-embassy-land-inside-baghdads-green-zone-security-sources-idUKL8N2J00GQ

#UPDATE
New video from tonight's rocket attack, via @AuroraIntel.
I hear five or six impacts in this 44 sec video (correct me if I'm wrong). Keep in mind there could have been as many as 12 (107mm) Katyusha rockets launched, as seen in a previous image.
