US Base In Syria Attacked By Iranian Proxy Forces

-

Iranian proxy forces attacked a U.S. military base in today.

As of now, there are no reported casualties.

A series of rockets have landed at a base in Northeast Syria in apparent retaliation for a series of strikes President Biden ordered after an Iranian-made drone killed a U.S. defense contractor and wounded six Americans yesterday.

The Biden-ordered strikes reportedly killed eight Iranians.

As Fox News reports:

The Defense Department said Thursday 's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps crashed a UAV into a building near Hasakah in northeast Syria at approximately 1:38 p.m. local time, leaving one U.S. contractor dead. The attack also wounded five U.S. service members and another U.S. contractor.

According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, two of the American strikes killed at least eight Iranian fighters. 

A U.S. airstrike at an depot in Harabesh, in the eastern city of Deir el-Zour left six Iranian-backed fighters dead. A second U.S. bombing at a post near the town of Mayadeen killed another two fighters, according to the Observatory, whose reporting relies on local Syrian contacts.

U.S. intelligence assessed the UAV that crashed into a coalition base, which killed the U.S. contractor, was of Iranian origin — so President Biden authorized the military to retaliate, the Pentagon said.
