That exchange of fire appeared to be in retaliation for military strikes ordered by President Joe Biden on Tuesday in Syria on various facilities that the Pentagon says are being used by pro-Iranian groups targeting Americans and coalition personnel led by USA in Syria.
The US military launched a counterattack on Wednesday after receiving rockets from paramilitaries allegedly aligned with Iran in Syria, two US officials told Reuters.
Those officials, who spoke to the agency on condition of anonymity because the information they had was still preliminary, said they believed an unknown number of pro-Iranian attackers were killed in the attacks. They made no comment on any casualties among the Americans.
