A defense official said the air strikes targeted a training facility and safe house, with the training facility also functioning "as a logistics and weapons storage facility."
"The United States does not seek conflict and has no desire to engage in further hostilities, but these Iran-backed attacks against U.S. forces are unacceptable and must stop. We specifically targeted IRGC-associated facilities to make clear to Iran that we will hold them responsible for these attacks against U.S. forces," the defense official said.
Since Oct. 17, there have been 56 total injuries to U.S. service members from attacks in Iraq and Syria, Pentagon deputy press secretary Sabrina Singh said.
Twenty-five cases include traumatic brain injuries. All service members have returned to duty, Singh said.
