A drone attack struck Iraq's Ain al-Asad air base, housing US troops, just days before a high-level Iraqi military delegation's anticipated visit to Washington to discuss the future of the American-led coalition in Iraq.
Explosions reverberated through the Ain al-Asad base in Iraq's Anbar province on Tuesday, following the assault by two drones, according to sources. No casualties or damages were reported.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack, which marks the second such incident since a pause in strikes on US bases earlier this year.
"In April, two drones were intercepted near Ain al-Asad," a US official confirmed.
Recent months have seen a surge in attacks on US military installations in Iraq and neighboring Syria, largely attributed to groups aligned with the Islamic Resistance in Iraq.
