A security source confirmed to Al-Mayadeen on Monday that the US airbase Ain al-Asad, located in western Iraq, was subjected to an attack with four missiles at 18:30 local time.

This marks the latest in a series of attacks by the Islamic Resistance in Iraq against US military bases in both Iraq and Syria, in response to US support for "Israel" during the ongoing war on Gaza.

Earlier in the day, the Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced the launch of a missile barrage targeting the US occupation base in the Conoco gas field situated in the northern Deir al-Zour countryside in Syria.

Subsequently, US fighter jets carried out an airstrike on areas controlled by the Syrian government near the Iraqi-Syrian border, targeting civilian trucks.

In the aftermath of this aggression, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the US occupation base in Al-Omar field, Deir Ezzor, Syria, was subjected to an intense barrage of 15 missiles.

Yesterday, Al Mayadeen received confirmation that the US base in Al-Shaddadi, situated to the south of Hasakah, came under fire originating from within Iraqi territory, resulting in explosions.

Just a few days ago, the resistance announced it launched a missile barrage targeting the US occupation base at Abu Hajar Airport in Khirbat al-Jir, northeastern Syria, achieving direct hits on its intended targets.

On October 29th, the resistance directed its efforts towards the Al-Omar oil field base in the Deir al-Zour countryside, successfully striking its intended targets directly.

The resistance has consistently used drones to target the Ain al-Asad base and the neighboring Harir base located near Erbil Airport. These actions also extended to targeting the al-Tanf base in Syria.
