3:22Now PlayingThe US military conducted airstrikes against Iranian proxy groups in Syria Thursday in response to a series of attacks against US troops and personnel in the region. NY Post Editorial Page Editor Mark Cunningham shares this story.
The “self-defense strikes” targeted two facilities in eastern Syria used by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and its affiliates and the offensive was authorized by President Biden, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said in a statement.
“These 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,” Austin said.
A pair of F-16 fighter jets used precision munitions to hit a weapons storage area and an ammunition storage facility located in Abu Kamal, Syria, near the country’s border with Iraq, according to a senior US military official.
