Iran fired more than a dozen ballistic missiles against two Iraq airbases where the US and coalition forces are based. Yes, you read it right! With an aggressive President on board, Iran initiated its first counter-attack on the United States.
The al-Asad airbase in western Iraq, which houses some American troops, was hit by at least six missiles upfront, according to a U.S. defense official familiar with the situation.
The strike comes as U.S. officials have defended Trump’s decision to kill Maj. Gen. Qasem Soleimani, the commander of Iran’s elite Quds Force, in an airstrike in Baghdad last week.
Surprisingly, American president, Donald Trump reacted to this aggravated incident in a cool way without declaring an out and out war.
“All is well! Missiles launched from Iran at two military bases located in Iraq. Assessment of casualties & damages taking place now. So far, so good! We have the most powerful and well-equipped military anywhere in the world, by far! I will be making a statement tomorrow morning,” tweeted Trump.
Let’s see what is in the store for Iran. Can America and the World afford a war?
