American soldiers were injured in a missile attack on the American "Ain al-Asad" base in Iraq.

On Monday evening, American media quoted officials as saying that the American Ain al-Asad air base was attacked in Iraq.

They pointed out that the attack was a missile attack, and resulted in the injury of some American soldiers.

No official statement has been issued by the US Department of Defense (Pentagon) regarding the attack, amid ambiguity about whether Iranian-backed groups carried out the attack as an extension of the growing tension between Iran and Israel.
