According to SAEDNEWS, In a troubling development, several personnel from the US and coalition forces sustained injuries in a drone attack on Friday in Syria, a US official informed Reuters. This incident marks the second significant attack against US forces in the region in just a few days, highlighting the escalating tensions in West Asia.
Initially, the US military reported no casualties from the drone strike; however, subsequent assessments revealed that some personnel had sustained minor injuries. The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, clarified that while none of the injuries were serious, some individuals were being evaluated for potential traumatic brain injuries. Additionally, several troops were relocated for further medical assessment.
Local sources reported that early Saturday, multiple explosions rocked the Kharab Al-Jir military base in Syria's eastern province of Hasakah. These explosions followed the drone attack on the US base, which is considered illegal under international law. The incidents also resulted in a fire engulfing part of the base.
As of now, no groups have claimed responsibility for the attack, leaving many questions unanswered about the motivations behind these escalations. The situation remains fluid, and further developments will be closely monitored as tensions in the region continue to rise.
