At Least One U.S. Service Member Injured By Missile Strikes In Syria: Reports

A rocket incident in eastern Syria resulted in the injuries of at least one U.S. program member.

At least 20 missiles were fired at a U.S. center in Deir Ezzor, northeast Syria, and at least eight of them made contact, according to Middle Eastern journalists, who reported this on Friday afternoon. At least one program member was hurt in the incidents, which reportedly took place close to the Conoco fuel industry, according to CNN.

“More than 20 missiles target the American base in the [Conoco] gas field east of Deir Ezzor,” journalist Hussein Mortada first reported on Twitter at around 4:35 p.m. EST. 

Eight missiles reportedly hit the foundation, according to another message from Al Jazeera. At the time, leaders were still assessing the damage and deaths.

CNN reported late Friday afternoon that militant groups affiliated with Iran launched the rockets targeting U.S. forces near the Conoco oil field. A senior U.S. defense official told Fox News that there were actually two separate attacks carried out on two separate bases: the first was a rocket attack, while the other was a drone strike. Officials at the Pentagon were still assessing any damage or casualties at the time.
