The US conducted a counterstrike on three sites used by Iran-backed forces in Iraq.
The attack was in response to an earlier incident that wounded three American personnel.
US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin stated that the strikes were proportionate and targeted facilities used by Hezbollah and affiliated groups.
The Islamic resistance in Iraq, a loose formation of armed groups, claimed responsibility for the drone attack.
President Joe Biden was briefed on the situation, and the US has faced numerous attacks in Syria and Iraq since October 17th, with most claimed by the Islamic resistance opposing US support for Israel in its conflict with Hamas.
