Missiles Strike US Base In Syria — Pentagon

 

An American military outpost in Syria has come under rocket fire, according to US Central Command, which condemned the yet-to-be-identified attackers for undermining the region’s “hard-earned stability” amid rising violence between Türkiye and local Kurdish factions.

At least two projectiles targeted a US “patrol base” near the town of al-Shaddadi in northeastern Syria late Friday night, CENTCOM said in a brief statement, offering no details about who might have carried out the assault.p

While the US military remained silent about the type of missiles used in the attack, it noted that a “third unfired rocket” was later discovered by the Kurdish forces at an “origin site,” indicating that it was not a cross-border strike and the projectiles were fired from a relatively close location.
