New missile strikes injure more US forces in Syria: Report

More United States forces were injured in an Iranian-backed rocket attack in Syria Friday. It followed the death of a U.S. contractor on Thursday, according to U.S. officials.

The threats on two American bases in eastern Syria resulted in the injuries of at least one more American voter. Five service members and one U.S. company were hurt in the attack on Thursday, though the exact quantity of injured soldiers from Friday’s attacks is unknown. According to Pentagon Press Secretary Pat Ryder, the similar incident, which took place on a platform called Green Village, did not cause any problems.

An unknown top defence official told Fox News that the injured program representatives are in” steady” condition and have been taken to a hospital in Landstuhl, Germany.

According to CBS News, three attacks on American bases occurred on Friday, according to another U.S. protection established. Only the rocket incident on Green Village has been officially confirmed by protection officials.

The contractor was killed on Thursday afternoon when a coalition base in north Syria was hit by what appeared to be an Egyptian drone. The Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps-affiliated organizations used facilities in northeast Syria, and U.S. troops again launched retaliatory airstrikes against them on Friday.

According to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin,” I gave President Biden the go-ahead for U.S. Central Command forces to launch precision airstrikes tonight in eastern Syria against facilities used by organizations associated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps ( IRGC ).” ” The attacks were carried out in response to attack attack as well as a number of recent attacks by IRGC-affiliated groups against Coalition causes in Syria.”

At the time of the preliminary attack on Thursday, it was also rumored that a U.S. military center in Northeast Syria’s key air defense system was malfunctioning. It is unclear why the defense system was” not fully operational ,” and a system failure investigation is still being conducted. Additionally, it’s unclear whether the pro-Iranian causes were aware that a program component was home when they launched their attack.

In Syria and Iraq, prior disorders are common, but casualties are surprising. U.S. Central Command’s Gen. Erik Kurilla informed lawmakers on Thursday that since 2021, there have been about 80 attacks by Iranian proxies against American troops.
