The United States military launched airstrikes on an Iranian-backed militia weapons depot in Syria in response to a missile attack on American personnel at the Shaddadi patrol base.
In a statement issued by the Pentagon, the American authorities stated that the attack did not cause damage to the American infrastructure and there were no casualties among the American forces.
The raid takes place in an already tense context in the region, where Iran-backed groups have been involved in several attacks on US forces in Syria.
According to American officials, the military actions are part of the United States’ attempts to protect its own personnel and facilities in the area.
