A series of rocket attacks targeted multiple military bases hosting U.S. troops in Iraq and Syria on Wednesday.
Combined Joint Task Force – Operation Inherent Resolve, the name for the U.S.-led coalition in Iraq and Syria, announced eight rounds of indirect fire weapons were launched at Green Village, a Syrian Democratic Forces base with a small U.S. and Coalition advisory presence in northeast Syria.
In a press release, Operation Inherent Resolve officials said they observed several launch sites for indirect fire rockets being set up in civilian areas near the Syrian base and assessed “Iran-supported malign actors” were responsible for the attacks.
“Coalition forces, acting on credible and actionable intelligence, responded swiftly and fired six rounds of artillery towards the point of origin of the attack just outside Mayadin, Syria,” the U.S.-led coalition said.
Later Wednesday, Al Asad Air Base in Iraq came under attack.
