Arab media outlets on early Tuesday reported that the United States’ Ain al-Assad base in Iraq was attacked.
Minutes later, an Iraqi Resistance group claimed responsibility for the attack, saying that it was conducted using two unmanned aircraft.
After the martyrdom of Resistance commanders who led the anti-terrorism fight in Iraq and Syria, the Iraqi parliament approved a piece of legislation to call for the withdrawal of American troops from the country, a demand that the US troops have yet to meet.
Meanwhile, local sources in Syria reported that the US base in the Conoco gas field was targeted with two missiles.
The reports added that a US-led coalition’s base in Syria’s al-Omar oil field has also come under missile attack.
In reaction to US support for the Israeli regime in the Gaza war, the Resistance groups have repeatedly targeted the positions of American forces in recent days.
