Two airbases of the United States and coalition forces in Iraq were hit by more than a dozen rockets early this morning. It is unclear if there were any casualties.
The Pentagon said, at least two sites were attacked, in Erbil and Al-Asad.
White House spokeswoman Stephanie Grisham said, in a statement, that the White House is monitoring the situation closely and consulting with the national security team.
The attack on the Ain al-Asad air base came after pro-Tehran factions in Iraq had vowed to join forces to respond to an American drone strike that killed Iranian General Qasem Soleimani in Baghdad last week.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard said the attack was in retaliation for the death of Soleimani on Friday.
