Iraq closes three Iran border crossings, probes drone attack on Saudi pipeline

Iraq closed three border crossings with Iran - Shalamcheh in Basra, al-Shib in Maysan and Mandali in Diyala - while investigating a drone attack on Saudi Arabia's East-West oil pipeline that was launched from Iraqi territory. A drone launcher was found in the al-Tayyib border area of Maysan, and a search operation is under way. Saudi Arabia suspended pipeline operations as a precaution, while US President Donald Trump said Tehran was possibly behind the attack without providing evidence.
