Aug 5, 2024, 08:57 PM
On August 5, 2024, the Ain al-Assad airbase in Anbar province, western Iraq, which houses U.S. and other international forces, came under rocket attack. The attack involved two Katyusha rockets, reportedly fired by Iran-backed militant groups, including those affiliated with the IRGC, according to Sabereen News. Initial reports indicated no casualties or significant damage, but later updates confirmed that several U.S. personnel were injured. The rockets were launched from a white Kia vehicle, and the C-RAM anti-aircraft gun system was deployed to repel the attack. Reuters reported that the U.S. military, which has approximately 2,500 troops stationed in Iraq, is conducting a post-attack damage assessment. This incident marks a significant escalation in regional tensions.
