Video: Purported Chemical Rocket Attack on U.S. Base in Samarra, Iraq

By Evan Kohlmann

On Tuesday, January 9, the Iraqi Islamic Resistance Front (a.k.a. JAAMI) issued a video recording purportedly depicting a rocket attack on a U.S. base in Samarra using a warhead containing a homemade chemical weapon. The U.S. military has no reports of any injuries or deaths relating to the deployment of such a weapon, and thus far, it is unclear whether the substance was actually toxic or not.
