US forces in Syria targeted with rockets after attacks in Jordan
American and allied forces in Syria were targeted with rockets on Monday, a US defense official said, after three of Washington's troops were killed in a drone attack in Jordan the previous day. This handout satellite picture released by Planet Labs PBC shows a view of the base, known as Tower 22, which is operated by US troops as part of an international coalition against the Islamic State jihadist group, near Jordan's border with Iraq and Syria. READ | 3 US service members killed, 34 wounded in Jordan drone attack linked to Iran, says Biden The United States has some 900 troops in Syria and 2,500 in neighboring Iraq as part of the international coalition against the Islamic State group, a jihadist organization that once controlled swathes of both countries. US and coalition forces have been attacked at least 165 times since mid-October -- 66 in Iraq, 98 in Syria and one in Jordan -- with "a mix of one-way attack drones, rockets, mortars, and close-range ballistic missiles," the US official said.
