Iraq base attack: Strikes 'kill 25' Iran-backed fighters after troops killed
    12 March 2020

Air strikes in eastern Syria killed 26 Iraqi fighters from an Iran-backed paramilitary force after a deadly attack on US-led coalition forces in Iraq, a monitoring group has said.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Popular Mobilisation camps near the border town of Albu Kamal were hit.

It was not clear who carried out the strikes. The coalition did not comment.

That last part is important, we don't know who carried out these airstrikes, at one point, I even thought I read, we, the US, directly denied carrying these out.

Dominic Raab seems to be the defense minister in the UK:

The UK and US have vowed to hold to account those responsible for a fatal attack on a coalition military base in Iraq.

A British soldier was killed alongside two Americans in the rocket attack on Taji base, with a dozen more personnel injured.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the attack would “not be tolerated”, while Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said it was a “cowardly” act.
