According to the Pentagon, since October 17, various groups in the Middle East have attacked American soldiers at least 12 times in Iraq and four times in Syria.
Two rockets fell on the site of the American military base Camp Victory, located near Baghdad airport in Iraq. Reuters reported this on Tuesday, September 10.
The shelling caused material damage, but no casualties.
The US Embassy has yet to comment on the incident.
Iran’s Iran-backed Kataib Hezbollah group said the attack on the airport was aimed at disrupting a visit by Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian scheduled for Wednesday morning.
Let’s remember that Iraq is an ally of both Iran and the United States. There are 2,500 US troops stationed in the country, as well as Tehran-backed militias.
Let’s remember that in January the United States and Iraq began negotiations on the withdrawal of troops.
It was also reported that the United States launched a strike on Iraq on July 30 in self-defense amid rising tensions in the region following an Israeli airstrike on Beirut.
