The United States struck, on Thursday, October 26, two installations based in eastern Syria used by Iranian revolution guards and “affiliated groups,” said US Defense Minister Lloyd Austin.
“A direct message was sent. I will not go further, ”confirmed, for his part, the spokesman for the White House, John Kirby.
These strikes intervene in response to a series of attacks by fighters sustained by Iran against American staff in Iraq and Syria.
Recall that armed groups close to Iran have threatened to attack the American bases in the Middle East due to the support of Washington in Israel in his war against Hamas.
