The convoy carrying the Russian ambassador to Iraq was attacked Sunday on the road from Baghdad to Syria.
Several people were injured, a Russian foreign ministry spokesman said.
"The car convoy with members of the Russian embassy in Iraq, including the ambassador, came under attack when it was leaving Baghdad in the direction of the Syrian border," the spokesman said.
Officials did not yet know whether the convoy came under attack from Iraqi troops or the US-led coalition forces.
