The strike caused material damage and a fire that was later contained by firefighting teams with no reported casualties, the officer said.
The attack came amid heightened regional tensions following joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran starting on Feb. 28, to which Iran and its regional allies responded with attacks on Israeli and U.S. interests across the Middle East.
