Ballistic Missiles Fired From Iran At US Bases In Iraq

Multiple cruise missiles fired from inside Iran have targeted multiple US bases across Iraq. US officials have confirmed the attacks and Iranian officials have already taken credit for them.

From senior US military source in Iraq:
“Under missile attack from Iran. These are either cruise missiles or short range ballistic missiles. All over the country.”

The targeted installations include Erbil in Kurdistan and al Assad air base in al Anbar. No reports on friendly casualties as of yet.

Iranian state TV reported that the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, or IRGC, “has hit U.S. Ain al-Asad airbase in Iraq with tens of missiles.” The IRGC warned the US of more “crushing responses in case of new aggression,” according to CNN.
