Three overnight airstrikes on eastern Syria Saturday near a strategic border crossing with Iraq killed six Iran-backed militants, two members of Iraqi militia groups told The Associated Press. The strikes on the border region of Boukamal came hours after an umbrella group of Iran-backed Iraqi militants - known as the Islamic Resistance - claimed an attack on a USmilitary base in the city of Irbil in northern Iraq. The group has conducted over a hundred attacks on USpositions in Iraq and eastern Syria since the onset of the Hamas-Israel war on October 7.from World News Headlines, Latest International News, World Breaking News - Times of India https://ift.tt/4boivec
