The United States has "successfully" struck dozens of structures and positions, in Iraq and Syria, of militias allied with Iran. According to the Human Rights Observatory, at least 18 pro-Iranian militiamen were killed in the raids in Syria.

This is the retaliation promised by President Joe Biden after the killing of three US soldiers on the border between Jordan and Syria during a drone raid against a US base.

After the raids, the White House made it known that it was a response to the raid, but that "it does not want war with Iran" and that an attack on Tehran is not in Washington's intentions.

“But all those who want to harm us – said President Joe Biden – must know this: if you harm an American, we will react”.
