Iraqi forces have forcefully raided camp Ashraf.At least 4 people got killed.
The People's Mujahideen of Iran (PMOI) set up Camp Ashraf as a base in Iraq in the 1980s.
In those years there was Iran-Iraq war.
It was used by exiles from Iran. It is home for 3.500 people.
The camp was disarmed by US soldiers following the US-led invasion of Iraq in 2003.
Iran wants the camp closed for years now.
The spokesman of the PMOI, Shahriar Kia, says that residents are terrified of being handed over to Iranian authorities.
The group says it is ready to return to Iran - but only on condition that none of its members will be prosecuted or persecuted.
