Missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles were used in the attacks. The other day, Iraq accused the United States of escalating tensions due to the attack on militants of the Kataib Hezbollah group.
Iraq and Syria attacked US troops four times in a matter of hours. This is stated in the Reuters material.
On November 23, American troops were attacked using missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles. According to an unnamed military representative, there were no casualties among personnel or damage to infrastructure.
“The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said US and international forces attacked two sites in northeastern Syria with multiple missiles and a unidirectional drone,” reporters reported.
In Iraq, unmanned aerial vehicles were launched at Ayn al-Assad air base west of Baghdad and at the US base near Erbil airport in the north.
Attacks on the sites earlier in the day were claimed by a group calling itself Islamic Resistance. Analysts argue that this agreement unites several Iraqi armed groups with ties to Iran.
Media emphasized that the attacks took place the day after the US struck the Kataib Hezbollah militant group. Their representatives stated that 8 fighters were killed as a result of the attack by American soldiers. Iraq condemned the actions as escalation and a violation of sovereignty.
US officials said that the US launched attacks on Iranian groups after the increase in attacks against US and international forces. The unnamed official said that there have been 36 attacks in Iraq and 37 attacks in Syria since October 17.
Let us remind you that on November 21, Iranian militants also attacked the American air base with a missile. According to media reports, many soldiers were injured.
On the night of November 9, the Syrian army clashed with US troops. Both sides reportedly used a wide variety of weapons, including heavy artillery and missiles.
