US troops injured in last week’s Iranian missile attack



WASHINGTON: Several US service members sustained injuries during last week’s Iranian missile attack on Al-Asad airbase in Iraq.

Pentagon, however, had denied the fact saying that no casualties had taken place.

CNN reported that a total of 11 service members had been injured in the attack, which was launched in retaliation for the US airstrikes that had killed Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani the previous week.

Following the attack the Pentagon said that no casualties had resulted from the 16 missiles fired by Iran.
