Syria: Iran-backed jihadis attack U.S. base, three American service members injured

Iran is openly treating the U.S. as an enemy, and Biden’s handlers are still indefatigably pursuing a policy of appeasement and a new Iran nuclear deal.

“Pentagon: Iran-backed militants attack U.S. base in Syria,” by Ben Wolfgang, Washington Times, August 24, 2022

Iran-backed militants launched a rocket attack on two U.S. military installations in northeast Syria late Wednesday, injuring three American service members, Pentagon officials said.

U.S. Central Command said that rockets landed along the perimeter of Mission Support Site Conoco just after 7 p.m. local time. Shortly after, more rockets landed near Mission Support Site Green Village. Both sites in northeastern Syria are home to U.S. troops.

American forces responded to the assaults with attack helicopters, officials said, and carried out a “proportional and deliberate” response that killed several militants.

One U.S. service member was treated for minor injuries and has already returned to duty, officials said. Two others are under evaluation for minor injuries….

At least two Iran-backed militants were killed by U.S. troops during the fight, officials said, and some of their equipment was destroyed.

Wednesday’s attack came less than 24 hours after U.S. airstrikes targeted facilities in Syria used by extremist militias linked directly to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. Those strikes Tuesday in Deir ez-Zor, Syria, were themselves a direct response to a rocket attack last week that targeted American troops in Syria.
