BAGHDAD - The Iraqi and Saudi foreign ministers discussed in a phone call on Wednesday the latest regional and international developments, led by the Iranian attack on Iraq's Kurdistan region, the Iraqi foreign ministry said in a statement.
Iran late on Monday struck Erbil, the capital of Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdistan region, with ballistic missiles in what it said was an attack on an Israeli spy headquarters - claims vehemently denied by Iraqi and Iraqi Kurdish officials.
The Iranian attacks have caused a rare diplomatic dispute between the two neighbouring allies.
