Retired U.S. Army Gen. David Perkins reacts to the 74 attacks on U.S. forces in the Middle East since Oct. 17 on ‘The Story.’

U.S. forces stationed in Syria were attacked Tuesday, Pentagon officials said Thursday, marking the 74th time since Oct. 17 that troops were targeted in the Middle East.

Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh confirmed the attack during Thursday's Department of Defense briefing.

"There was an attack on Tuesday…that brings the total attacks up to 74 attacks from October 17th until now," she said, adding that there were no additional attacks over the last two days.
