BAGHDAD: A UN investigative team on Monday visited a contentious Iranian dissident camp in Iraq where multiple residents were killed the previous day in unclear circumstances, as the Iraqi government pledged to launch its own probe into the bloodshed.
The facts of what happened at Camp Ashraf are in dispute, including the number of those killed and how they died.
Supporters of the roughly 100 exiles who had been living at the Saddam Hussein-era facility northeast of Baghdad allege that more than 50 people were killed in violence it blamed on Iraqi security forces. Iraqi officials have provided lower death tolls and have given different accounts of what happened, with some saying the bloodshed began with infighting.
