Iran launched airstrikes on a U.S. military facility located near Erbil International Airport, Iraq. A large plume of smoke rose behind buildings in the airport area, indicating missiles had struck their target.
The targeted facility is a U.S. military position co-located with Erbil International Airport, where American forces maintain a long-term presence in the Kurdistan autonomous region.
There is no clear information yet regarding U.S. casualties. The extent of infrastructure damage and the impact on airport operations have not been disclosed.
The strike occurred amid sharply escalating regional tensions following earlier U.S. and Israeli airstrikes on Iran. Iran’s targeting of a U.S. military facility outside its own territory increases the risk of widening conflict in the region.
Developments continue to be closely monitored. Updated information will be added as new confirmations emerge from the parties involved.
