US forces carried out strikes in Syria on Monday against groups supporting Iran. According to the US armed forces, the attacks were a response to attacks against the country’s forces in Syria.
According to Centcom, the headquarters of the US military’s Middle East war zone, the attacks weaken the groups’ ability to plan and launch future attacks.
Centcom did not say which groups were targeted or whether people were killed in the attacks. According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, four members of groups loyal to Iran were killed in the attacks.
