Five injured in Baghdad ammunition depot explosion, PMF says

Five members of Iraq's Popular Mobilization Forces sustained minor injuries in an ammunition depot explosion in Baghdad on October 17, the organisation said.

A stockpile of damaged ammunition exploded inside one of its headquarters, according to a statement quoted by The New Region. The PMF reported the five injuries in a separate subsequent statement.

Interfax had earlier cited a statement from the organisation reporting an explosion at an old depot and no reported deaths.
