Iraqi PM Survives Assassination Attempt

By John Lee.

Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi escaped uninjured in an assassination attempt at his home in Baghdad's Green Zone on Sunday.

A drone carrying explosives was used to carry out the attack, which has been condemned by Iraqi politicians and world leaders.

Al-Kadhimi was previously Iraq's head of intelligence before becoming prime minister last year.
