WASHINGTON, March 25 ― President Joe Biden yesterday warned Iran that the United States would “act forcefully” to protect Americans, after the US military carried out air strikes against Iran-backed forces in retaliation for an attack in Syria.
Suspected US rocket fire yesterday targeted new areas in eastern Syria, according to two local sources, with no casualties reported. Pro-Iranian forces in Syria said in an online statement late Friday that they have a “long arm” to respond to further US strikes on their positions. Iran's state Press TV said no Iranians had been killed and quoted local sources as saying the target was not an Iran-aligned military post, but that a rural development centre and a grain centre near a military airport had been hit.The US strikes were a response to a drone attack earlier on Thursday on a base near Hasakah in northeast Syria operated by a US-led coalition battling the remnants of Islamic State.
The Pentagon said the US military had a complete site picture in terms of radar, though one official told Reuters troops on the ground did not appear to have had enough time to react to the drone.
