The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) has confirmed that its forces launched airstrikes on nine targets in Syria, specifically targeting Iranian-aligned militias. These strikes were conducted in response to a series of attacks on U.S. personnel over the past 24 hours. The targeted sites included locations in Deir Ezzor, particularly around the Al-Omar oil field and the Green Village. The strikes also hit multiple sites belonging to IRGC militias in Deir Ezzor and its countryside, including Al-Tamou neighborhood in Al-Mayadeen and near Rahba Castle. Additional targets included Al-Bukamal and Conoco, with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq being identified as one of the groups involved.
