Three American contractors went missing in Iraq two days ago, said a senior security official in Baghdad.
“A company filed a report Sunday about three of its staff going missing two days ago. They are American contractors. We are looking into this report,” the official told CNN.
The official could not provide more details.
The U.S. State Department said it was aware of the report.
“We are working with the full cooperation of the Iraqi authorities to locate and recover the individuals,” spokesman John Kirby said in a statement.
