Iran's Revolutionary Guards force says it targeted an Israeli "strategic centre" with missiles that struck the Iraqi Kurdish city of Irbil overnight.

Twelve missiles hit areas around the US consulate overnight, causing material damage and wounding one civilian, the Kurdistan Regional Government said.

The US said no Americans were hurt and that its facilities were not damaged in what it called the "outrageous attack".

Israel's military and government declined to comment on Iran's claim.

But Kurdish officials accused the Revolutionary Guards of seeking to use "baseless" propaganda to justify targeting civilian locations.

Taxi driver Ziryan Wazir said he was in his car near the US consulate when the missiles struck at around 01:00 on Sunday (23:00 GMT on Saturday).

"I saw a lot of dust, then I heard a very loud noise. The windows of my car exploded and I was injured in the face," he told AFP news agency.

A local television channel, Kurdistan24, posted images of damage to its offices cause by the blasts.

Iranian state media cited a Revolutionary Guards statement as saying the force had targeted "the Zionists' strategic centre of plotting and evil" in Irbil with precision-guided missiles in response to "recent crimes".

The Revolutionary Guards had vowed to make Israel "pay" for an air strike near the Syrian capital Damascus on Monday that killed two senior Iranian officers.

The Kurdistan Region's Council of Ministers said: "This cowardly attack on Irbil... allegedly under the pretext of hitting an Israeli base near the US Consulate in Irbil, targeted civilian locations and its justification is only to hide the disgracefulness of such offence."

"We reiterate that the propaganda of the perpetrators of this attack is far from true."

Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Kadhimi also condemned the attack.

"The aggression which targeted the dear city of Irbil and spread fear amongst its inhabitants is an attack on the security of our people," he tweeted.

"Our security forces will investigate and stand firm against any threats towards our people."

The US ambassador to Iraq, Matthew Tueller, said that Iran "must be held accountable for this flagrant violation of Iraqi sovereignty and for terrorist attacks on innocent civilian properties".

Stop saying what u don't know. Isreal did not fire any missile into Iran. Isreal bombed Some Hezbolla locations in SYRIA. IRAN bombed kurdish civilians in IRAQ and claimed they were targeting isreal.

Am sensing a very big war. In no distance time.

Cue Islamophobes in 3...2...1

Fight just dey hungry everybody.

When two kids fight and couldn't find no one to separate them next time they will never forget to make peace.

Isreal and Iran testing their missile capabilities. One thing about Iranians is, they match their words with action. Iran has vowed to avenge the murder of its two officers in Syria by isreal. Isrealis are shiiting in their pants now because they know Iran can and will carry out its threat. Both countries are very stubborn.Tit-for-tat killings ad infinitum!

Vawulence everywhere.

They just want to cause needless war

Middle east again? They should calm down o, the other day, it was India firing into Pakistan in error.

Iran should borrow a leaf from the Israelis.

When Isreal strikes, they strike at the heart of Iran, they destroy Iranian facilities in Iran homeland. If they targets are individuals, they focus on those individuals and eliminate them.

Iran should not be bombing infrastructures on Iraqi soil. Like play like play you fit make mistake, and gather more wahala than your hand can grasp.

Another warmonger on the loose. Where is the love in the world
