The Revolutionary Guard targets two American bases in Iraq

 

 

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard militia announced, on Tuesday, that it carried out a missile attack on Ain al-Assad base in Anbar province, in western Iraq, and another base in Erbil, and both include American forces.

Meanwhile, Al-Arabiya / Al-Hadath sources confirmed that the American forces retaliated by targeting the wheel that fired the missiles at Al-Qaeda.

In a statement attributed to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards, the militia adopted targeting the Ain al-Assad base and another base in Erbil, in retaliation for the killing of Qasim Soleimani in the American operation, last Friday, in Baghdad.

Iran also brandished more "destructive responses" after this attack, and Washington warned against responding, amid reports of the destruction of a number of US aircraft in the bombing of Ein al-Assad base.

From inside Iran

In turn, a senior Pentagon official said on Tuesday that the Ain al-Assad base in Iraq was attacked by a missile, and it was not known if there were any casualties.

US Department of Defense spokesman Jonathan Hoffman added that there is no information yet about any damage or injuries as a result of the attack, but he stressed that the wing that includes the American military presence at Ein al-Assad base had been hit by missile strikes.

He also announced that the targeted installations include Erbil, northern Iraq, and the Ain al-Assad air base.

He added that ballistic missiles were fired from inside Iran at American military installations in Iraq, while a Kurdish source confirmed that the source of the missiles was Kermanshah in Iran.

On the other hand, it was reported that a siren sounded amid an American helicopter flight in the sky of Ain Al-Asad base in western Iraq.

"Trump knows and is watching."

After Tehran claimed responsibility for the missile attack, Al-Bayadh announced that it was aware of the targeting of its forces in Iraq.

He revealed that President Trump was informed of the bombing of the American base in Anbar, and that he was closely monitoring the situation and was consulting with his national security team.

The US Secretary of State and Defense came to the White House after the attacks.

Iran attacks US air base in Iraq

TEHRAN, Iran: Iran struck back at the United States for the killing of a top Iranian general early Wednesday, firing a series of surface-to-surface missiles at two Iraqi bases housing U.S. troops and warning the United States and its allies in the region not to retaliate.
U.S. officials confirmed the strikes, though Iran only initially acknowledged targeting one base. There was no immediate word on injuries.
Iranian state TV said the attack was in revenge for the killing of Revolutionary Guard Gen. Qassem Soleimani, whose funeral procession Tuesday in his hometown of Kerman prompted angry calls to avenge his death, which drastically raised tensions in the Middle East.
Iran’s Revolutionary Guard warned the U.S. and its regional allies against retaliating over the missile attack against the Ain Assad air base in Iraq’s western Anbar province. The Guard issued the warning via a statement carried by Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency.
“We are warning all American allies, who gave their bases to its terrorist army, that any territory that is the starting point of aggressive acts against Iran will be targeted,” The Guard said. It also threatened Israel.
Ain Assad air base is in Iraq’s western Anbar province. It was first used by American forces after the 2003 U.S.-led invasion that toppled dictator Saddam Hussein, and later saw American troops stationed there amid the fight against the Islamic State group in Iraq and Syria. It houses about 1,500 U.S. and coalition forces.
State TV said the operation’s name was “Martyr Soleimani.” It said the Guard’s aerospace division that controls Iran’s missile program launched the attack. Iran said it would release more information later.
The U.S. also acknowledged another missile attack on a base in Irbil in Iraq's semiautonomous Kurdish region.
A spokesperson for the Norwegian Armed Forces told AP in a phone interview that about 70 Norwegian troops were on the airbase, but no injuries have been reported, Brynjar Stordal, a spokesperson for the Norwegian Armed Forces told AP in a phone interview.”
Wednesday's revenge attack came a mere few hours after crowds in Iran mourned Soleimani and as the U.S. continued to reinforce its own positions in the region and warned of an unspecified threat to shipping from Iran in the region's waterways, crucial routes for global energy supplies. U.S. embassies and consulates from Asia to Africa and Europe issued security alerts for Americans. The U.S. Air Force launched a drill with 52 fighter jets in Utah, just days after President Donald Trump threatened to hit 52 sites in Iran.

Sadr threatens to hit the United States of America .. and activists: the mask fell from your face, Moqtada

 

Iraqi activists on social media launched a violent attack on the leader of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al - Sadr, who threatened to strike the United States of America after her assassination of the terrorist Qassem Soleimani.

The activists affirmed that Al- Sadr is proving day after day that he is an Iranian agent and that he is the righteous son of Khamenei, where he went to Iran to offer condolences on Soleimani’s death and was not comforted in the martyrs of the Iraqi demonstrations.

The activists pointed out that the mask fell from the face of Muqtada al - Sadr and that he wore a mask of Khamenei and not Iraq, and that he had become a pure Iranian, not Iraqi, and Iraqi blood does not flow in his veins, but rather became Iranian blood.

Also yesterday, Monday, the office of the Sadrist leader, Muqtada al-Sadr, was hacked.

The penetrator published a picture of the American and Iraqi flags on the website of the Sadr office.

Activists attacked Sadr after attending the funeral council for the terrorist Qassem Soleimani in Iran, and after his statements against America.

The activists affirmed that Al- Sadr had proven by this that he was Ajami and his first and last loyalty to Iran and the regime of the mullahs, and that his origins are not Iraqi but Iranian until he consoles in a terrorist who killed the Iraqi youth.

The activists sent a message to Sadr, asking, "Why did you not visit the martyrs of the Iraqi demonstrations killed by the Qassem Soleimani militia? Because they are your loyalty to Iran and the Safavid regime."

And the " Baghdad Post " monitors the reaction of activists of the social networking site "Facebook" to the statements of Muqtada Al- Sadr about striking America:

And the account of "Haman Al-Husseini" said, "Muqtada has proven that he does not understand and knows nothing .... the Iranians will kill him. They claim that America killed him."
