US bases were attacked in Iraq. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has now announced that a response has been made.
The US military has responded to a series of attacks against US bases in Iraq with precision strikes, according to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin. In these attacks by militias supported by Iran, three US soldiers were injured, one of them seriously, Austen said on Monday evening (local time). On the instructions of US President Joe Biden, “necessary and proportional” strikes were carried out against three bases used by these militias.
At the same time, the US Secretary of Defense warned of further attacks against US soldiers in the region. “We do not want to escalate the conflict in the region, but we are determined and ready to take further necessary measures to protect our people and facilities.”
