United States forces were attacked four times in Iraq and Syria late on November 23, but there were no casualties or damage to infrastructure, a U.S military official told Reuters.
According to the unnamed official, U.S. forces were attacked at two bases in northeastern Syria with multiple rockets and a suicide drone
In Iraq, multiple suicide drones were launched at Ayn al-Assad Air Base in the western province of al-Anbar and another was launched at a base housing U.S. forces near Erbil International Airport in the northern autonomous region of Kurdistan, the official said.
The Islamic Resistance in Iraq (IRI), a coalition of Iranian-backed armed factions, claimed responsibility for the attack and said that they were carried out in response to Israeli “crimes” against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Video footage released by the IRI showed the launch of multiple suicide drones, all of which were similar in design to the Iranian-made Ababil-2.
The IRI formed a special operations room to support Gaza and began launching attacks against U.S. forces in Iraq and neighboring Syria following the October 17 Al-Ahli Arab Hospital massacre. Since then, around 70 attacks have targeted U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria.
Earlier this week, nine fighters of the IRI, most of them members of the Kata’ib Hezbollah, were killed in two waves of U.S. retaliatory strikes on Iraq.
It is still unclear if the IRI will halt attacks on U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria during the temporary ceasefire in Gaza which began on November 24.
it is well know that us and israelis troops are immune to rocket attacks and can’t be hurt or wounded less lone killed by them. i don’t know why the arabs still do it knowing it is futile to hurt them. the us and israelis troops are like supermen where bullets bounce off them. one day the truth will come out on how many hurt and killed troops there was!
hollywood deviants like your script…
the us does that in all their wars unless video evidence comes out then they retract their previous claims, example is kosovo war where they claimed no aircraft were shot down until f117 and f16 were lost and there photos. even when the shootdowns happened they claimed f117 was lost not from enemy competence but that from a ‘lucky hit’. sev days later another f117 was hit.was damaged beyond repair. f16 was not shot down by missle but was damaged by it then crashed
prečo by mali zastaviť vyháňanie okupantov zo sýrie a iraku? veď to nemá nič spoločné s výmenou zajatcov medzi izraelom a palestínou.
one of these days one of the vergeltungswaffe is going to find its mark and then kaboom goes the whole middle east.
but first of all, why us do have bases there?
