U.S. Airstrikes Target Iran-Backed Militia Targets In Iraq And Syria

In this Feb. 17, 2021, file photo, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby speaks during a media briefing at the Pentagon, in Washington. Kirby announced late Feb. 25, that the U.S. military conducted airstrikes against facilities in eastern Syria that the Pentagon said were used by Iran-backed militia groups, in response to recent attacks against U.S. personnel in Iraq.

They mark the second such attacks against similar facilities in and around Syria under the Biden administration.
