US military bases in Syria came under attacks. Meanwhile, the Axis of Resistance in Iraq have announced the resumption of attacks on American bases in Iraq, as the United States is delaying the withdrawal of occupation troops from Iraq at the request of the Iraqi government.

According to Lebanon’s al-Mayadeen, the attacks were launched on the night of April 22. They targeted the US military base in the al-Omar oil field and Kharab al-Jir base, both in eastern Syria.

The most important American bases in eastern Syria, were attacked less than an hour apart. The US base at the al-Omar oil field was reportedly targeted with four missiles, while the Kharab al-Jir base was targeted with three missiles and a drone. According to unofficial sources, the missiles were launched from the northern province of Nineveh.

There has been no immediate claim of responsibly for the attacks. Casualties were reported but no details were revealed.

The rocket attack is the first time since early February that forces in Iraq targeted U.S. installations and military personnel. Then, the attacks have wounded dozens of American troops and killed three service members in a base in Jordan in January. LINK The Kharab al-Jir base, located in northeastern Syria near the Iraqi border, had previously been attacked in December.

The Axis of Resistance has announced the resumption of hostilities against the United States. Khataib Hezbollah said that Iraqi militant groups were resuming attacks on American bases and personnel, with Sunday’s attack being “the beginning.” The Axis of Resistance forces in Iraq reported that the attacks are the response to the United States  delaying the withdrawal of occupation troops from Iraq at the request of the Iraqi government, thereby delaying the occupation of the country. The decision to withdraw American troops was made by the Iraqi parliament back in 2020. In 2023, the current Prime Minister of Iraq demanded the immediate withdrawal of troops. The United States seeks to delay it as much as possible, since leaving Iraq may entail a forced withdrawal from Syria.

here we go with the “axis of resistance” moniker. please come up with something different like “liberation alliance”, allies of righteousness” something, anything other than “axis” which has negative baggage

kotromanic

so the name is a problem but the fact that all central powers who caused ww1 and all axis members who caused ww2 are in the nato alliance is not a problem? the only missing part is western ukraine then all the axis members are reunited under the nato banner.
