ERROR 1064 (42000) SQL Syntax error while running ansible playbook - mysql

Question

I am trying to load files into MySQL RDS using ansible-playbook
tasks:
- name: loadBase
block:
- name: copy loadBase files to target
copy: src=../../myApp/{{ item }}
dest=/tmp/{{ item | basename }}
owner=tomcat group=tomcat mode=0600
with_items: "{{ data.loadBase }}"
- name: load loadBase files into target mysql
shell: mysql -h {{ db_host }} -u root -p{{ db_root_password }} {{ db_name }} < /tmp/{{ item | basename }}
with_items: "{{ data.loadBase }}"
no_log: true
- name: cleanup loadBase files on target
file: path=/tmp/{{ item | basename }}
state=absent
with_items: "{{ data.loadBase }}"
when: loadBase
I am using the following config file which is used by the ansible playbook
Config file:
# data files, relative to the source code root, to be
# conditionally run during a deployment
data:
loadBase:
- data/src/main/sql/structure.sql
- data/src/main/sql/data.sql
- data/src/main/sql/update.sql
I see that the .sql files are being added to the /tmp folder in the app server from the ansible server. But I see that the data is not loading to MySQL RDS and I see the following error
ERROR 1064 (42000) at line 1: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near '-\nansible_ssh_common_args: '-o ProxyCommand=\"ssh -W %h:%p -q root#bastion-myapp' at line 1",
I am using MySQL RDS Engine version 8.0.11.
Its trying to connect to the bastion host again and its failing?
ansible_ssh_common_args: '-o ProxyCommand="ssh -W %h:%p -q bastion-app.org"'
Any help, what's wrong here?

Why not using the Ansible MySQL module?
See Insert data into mysql tables using ansible and https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.5/modules/mysql_db_module.html:
# Copy database dump file to remote host and restore it to database 'my_db'
- name: Copy database dump file
copy:
src: dump.sql.bz2
dest: /tmp
- name: Restore database
community.mysql.mysql_db:
name: my_db
state: import
target: /tmp/dump.sql.bz2
