Why they chose to have it in Baghdad is baffling. This was way too ripe of a target for the various factions in Iraq to ignore.

The location apparently was hit by mortar shells of rockets. Sources say the explosions happened near the Iranian embassy, which is one of the many governmental and diplomatic facilities located in the highly-fortified Green Zone. [link to rt.com]

Update: The main issue the regional leaders are to discuss is the conflict in Syria. The draft declaration calls on all the parties involved to lay down arms. It also states the organization’s support of the peace plan sponsored by UN’s special envoy Kofi Annan. [link to rt.com]

A senior Iraqi intelligence official said a mortar hit near the Iranian Embassy, just outside the Green Zone where the summit was being held in a palace once used by dictator Saddam Hussein. He had no word on a second explosion and said there were no immediate reports of casualties.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release the information.
