Rocket Hits Near U.N. Head In Iraq

Two mortar rounds were fired at the Green Zone, an Interior Ministry official said. The Associated Press reported that small chips of debris fell from the ceiling.
The explosion startled Ban, who swiftly regained his composure as the briefing continued.
"A mortar landed and went off 100 meters away in an open field outside the compound where the press conference was being held," said U.N. spokeswoman Marie Okabe.
"The press conference continued. They don't know where it came from."
Okabe said Ban was "fine" and would continue as scheduled on the rest of his Middle East visit.
