Two U.S. soldiers from the USS Wasp were assaulted by a nationalist Turkish youth group in Izmir, Turkey. The incident involved placing sacks over the soldiers' heads while chanting 'Yankee, go home.' The attack was reportedly a protest against American military presence and a response to a past incident involving U.S. and Turkish soldiers. The U.S. Embassy in Turkey confirmed the attack and expressed gratitude for the swift response by Turkish authorities, who detained 15 individuals involved in the assault.
