Details

The US military attacked the positions of pro-Iranian armed groups in Yemen and Syria. The US Department of Defense announced that last weekend it carried out air strikes on several weapons depots of Houthi militias in Yemen.

In Syria, the US military attacked a weapons depot and logistics center belonging to a pro-Iranian militia, according to the US Central Command (CENTCOM).

For reference

The attacks followed major upheavals in the Middle East. On October 7, 2023, the Iranian-backed Hamas terrorist group invaded southern Israel and killed about 1,200 people and took another 250 hostages. As a result of the war, other Iranian-backed terrorist groups attacked Israel.

In recent months, Iran has carried out direct attacks on Israel, prompting Israel to launch a counterattack on Iranian military facilities.

Since October 7, US military forces have been under intensified attacks by Iranian-backed groups in Syria and Iraq.

Our message is clear. Attacks on U.S. personnel and coalition partners in the region will not be tolerated. We will continue to take all necessary measures to protect our personnel and coalition partners and to respond to reckless attacks

- said General Michael E. Kurilla, CENTCOM commander.
