A drone that attacked near Baghdad International Airport last week nearly hit the American convoy escorting freelance journalist Shelly Kittleson, who was released after being abducted. The incident occurred hours after President Donald Trump announced a temporary ceasefire in the war with Iran. The Wall Street Journal reported, citing American and Iraqi sources, who noted that the attack involved at least two drones that exploded at an American facility near the airport as the vehicles escorting Kittleson were arriving at the gate.
