An Iraqi base housing U.S. troops came under drone attack early Friday morning, a U.S. military official told Military Times.
There were no casualties or damage, said Army Col. Wayne Marotto, a spokesman for Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve, the U.S.-led international coalition battling ISIS in Iraq and Syria.
The attack took place at the Bashur base at 1:23 a.m. local time Friday, Marotto said. He could not immediately say how many U.S. troops are housed there.
The Thaereen Brigade, a militia group, claimed responsibility for the attack, saying it was carried out with “booby-trapped drones,” Rudaw English, a Kurdish media operation, reported, citing a Telegram channel affiliated with Iran-backed militias.
