Looks like Camp Integrity is under a complex attack, started with VBIED and follow up with SAF and at least 6 explosions

The attack was believed to have started with a truck bomb outside the facility. The Pentagon now says that insurgents actually made it inside the compound where a firefight broke out.

Via @barbarastarrcnn: Pentagon says Camp Integrity "attackers did get on the base through a breach created by a vehicle-borne IED."
