US military moves air defense systems into Iraq following attacks on American troops
By Lucas Tomlinson | Fox News


Trump warns Iran against 'sneak attack' on US troops in Iraq: 'Don't do it'

The president reveals Iran is planning a 'sneak attack' on U.S. troops or assets in Iraq; 'Fox & Friends Weekend' host Pete Hegseth reacts.

The U.S. military said Thursday that air defense systems are "moving" into Iraq following attacks on American and coalition forces in recent weeks.

The weapons include Patriot surface-to-air missiles and a variant of the Navy's SeaRAM and CIWS, or close-in weapon system, which fires 3,000 rounds a minute, a defense official with knowledge of the order told Fox News.

For operational security, the U.S. military is not disclosing what bases are being reinforced.
