The Iraqi foreign ministry said Friday that it was summoning the US and British envoys following deadly overnight air strikes on military installations in the country, AFP reported.


The raids, carried out by US warplanes, were in retaliation for a rocket attack on Wednesday that killed a British soldier and two US military personnel.
