Blasts heard near Erbil airport in Iraqi Kurdistan: AFP

Two blasts were heard near Erbil airport, which hosts advisers from the U.S.-led anti-jihadist coalition, in Iraq's northern Kurdistan region, an AFP journalist said on Monday.

Since the Middle East war erupted on February 28, shadowy groups have been claiming near-daily attacks on U.S. interests in the country and beyond.
