MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The Ain al Asad air base located in western Iraq was hit by three rockets on Monday, resulting in no injuries, or damage, the spokesman for the Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR) said.
A source in Iraq, meanwhile, told Sputnik that a total of seven missiles have been fired, but only three of them fell on the base’s premises.
The air base is located in Anbar province. Last year, the Iraqi military spokesman said that the Ain al Asad facility was the only military base where coalition troops are still stationed.
In early 2020, the Iraqi parliament voted for foreign troop withdrawal from the country and for the revision of cooperation with the US-led anti-terrorist coalition. The coalition has since handed over to Iraqi troops a range of military bases where American forces used to be stationed.
