U.S. Conducts Airstrikes Against Iran-Backed Militias in Syria
United States fighter jets began conducting airstrikes against Iran-backed militias in Eastern Syria late Thursday in retaliation for attacks on U.S. troops.
“The U.S. Air Force has reportedly conducted multiple Airstrikes tonight against Iranian-Backed Militias within Eastern Syria in Retaliation for the Significant amount of Attacks recently on U.S. Bases in Syria and Iraq,” noted Open Source Intelligence Monitor.
“The Strikes tonight were against 2 Facilities in Eastern Syria used by the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) of Iran as well as several Iranian-backed militia Groups in the Region,” it continued.

In a statement, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said the “precision self-defense strikes are a response to a series of ongoing and mostly unsuccessful attacks against U.S. personnel in Iraq and Syria by Iranian-backed militia groups that began on October 17.”

“I’m not going to telegraph punches here from the podium. We have responded and retaliated in the past — quite aggressively, in fact, back in March. And as the President said: We will not hesitate to protect our troops and our facilities, but we’re going to do it at a time of our choosing in a...
