A missile attack targets stationed American forces in Ain al-Asad air base in Iraq

Al-Asad base in Anbar Governorate, western Iraq, where American forces are located, was subjected to a missile attack today (Sunday).

An officer with the rank of lieutenant colonel in the Iraqi army, who preferred to remain anonymous, told Xinhua News Agency that at least two missiles fell at the Ain al-Asad base in the town of al-Baghdadi in Anbar Governorate, western Iraq, at dawn today, resulting in minor material losses.

This is the second attack on the base. Last Thursday, it was subjected to a missile attack claimed by an armed group calling itself (Islamic Resistance in Iraq).

After the events in Gaza, the Iraqi bases where American forces were present as advisors and trainers were attacked by missiles and drones. These are the Al-Baghdadi bases in Anbar, the Victory bases near Baghdad International Airport, and the Harir bases in Erbil, the capital of the Kurdistan region in northern Iraq.
