The UN has condemned a rocket attack on a camp housing an Iranian exile group near Baghdad.

On Thursday, rockets were fired at Camp Liberty, home to members of the People's Mujahedin of Iran (MEK), the militant wing of a Paris-based Iranian opposition group.

The group said three residents were killed and more than 50 wounded. Iraqi officials said only two people were wounded.
