Three Polish military bases in Iraq have come under fire on Sunday night, officials reported on Monday.

None of the soldiers were injured in the shooting. The Zulu, Delta and Lima bases, all of them hosting Polish troops, were the ones attacked.

The Bulgarian contingent in Iraq is also under Polish command. The Bulgarians are currently in occupation of the Kilo base in Karbala. They moved to the place after the India base was destroyed by a cistern bomb last December. Four Bulgarian soldiers were killed in the attack.
