Multiple Drone Attacks Target US Military Bases in Syria and Iraq
Drones attacked a US military base in southern Syria, where US troops have been training forces as part of the campaign against the Islamic State group. One drone was shot down, while another caused minor injuries. Similar drone strikes have occurred in Iraq recently, and there was also a drone attack on an oil facility in eastern Syria housing American troops. The attacks come amid simmering anger in the region following an explosion at a Gaza hospital that killed hundreds of people.
