Erbil Airport in northern Iraq was reportedly attacked by a drone armed with explosives while hosting US troops, it has been reported.

The drone 'came down outside Erbil Airport' and started a fire, according to BBC correspondent Nafiseh Kohnavard. Reuters reported that the drone had been aimed at a U.S. base on the airport grounds.

It was previously reported that at least three drones and 20 rockets were used in the attack, though security sources have now said there were no rockets and just one drone used, Kohnavard reported.



Col. Wayne Marotto, spokesman for U.S. Operation Inherent Resolve, tweeted: 'Initial report: At approx. 11:15 PM local time, one UAS impacted in vicinity of Erbil Air Base, Iraq.'

The abbreviation UAS typically stands for Unmanned Aircraft Systems, or a drone, indicating that the drone may have exploded upon impact.

He added: 'At this time initial reports indicate no injuries, casualties or damage. We will update when we have further information.'
