Drone fell near a house in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, on Wednesday morning local time, according to security sources.
Sources told Anadolu that the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) fell near a house in the al-Jihad area of the city. No casualties were reported.
Videos circulating on social media showed residents gathering in the neighborhood after the drone fell.
Eyewitnesses also reported hearing explosions in several other districts of Baghdad.
The incident occurred after a series of drone attacks targeting the US military base Victoria Base at Baghdad International Airport. Security checkpoints have been set up at various locations in the capital after the incident.
Escalation in the region has increased since the United States and Israel launched a joint attack on Iran on February 28. The attack reportedly killed more than 1,200 people, including Iran's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, more than 150 schoolgirls, and a number of senior military officials.
Iran then responded with drone and missile attacks targeting cities in Israel as well as locations hosting US military assets in the region, raising fears of a wider conflict in the Middle East.
