BAGHDAD, July 10 (Reuters) - A big mortar and rocket attack on Baghdad's Green Zone compound on Tuesday killed two Iraqis and a Filipino and wounded 25 other people, Iraqi police said.

They said some 30 mortars and rockets were fired at the compound, which houses the Iraqi government and U.S. embassy. It was one of the biggest barrages ever against the heavily fortified zone.
