US Strikes Kataib Hezbollah Facilities

Following the bomb-laden UAV assault by Kataib Hezbollah on the US-led anti-DAESH coalition base in Erbil, Iraq, the USA announced targeting three Kataib Hezbollah facilities. The attack, prompting a White House statement via National Security Council Spokesperson Adrienne Watson, resulted in three US soldiers sustaining injuries, one seriously.

Kataib Hezbollah, linked to the Iranian-backed Shiite Hashd al-Shaabi forces, claimed responsibility for the attack. President Joe Biden was briefed on the incident and directed the Department of Defense to prepare for a response. Subsequently, US forces confirmed strikes on three locations affiliated with Kataib Hezbollah.
