Attempted attack on US base in Syria

According to information obtained from local sources, an attempted attack was carried out with a UAV carrying explosives of unknown origin against the base used by US forces in Tanf, located in the desert region of Homs near the Jordanian border.

It was stated that the US forces stationed at the base shot down the UAV in the desert region before it could reach the base.

There has been no statement from the US regarding the attack yet.

In recent days, attacks have been carried out with armed unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of unknown origin and surface-to-surface weapons against bases where the US military is stationed in Syria, including the Tanf region, the Malikiyah district near the Iraqi border, the Shaddadi district of Hasakah province, and Deir ez-Zor province.

Iran-backed groups occasionally carry out attacks with rockets and UAVs on US bases on the eastern bank of the Euphrates River.

IRAN'S MESSAGES

On October 19, Iranian state television broadcast a report detailing how Israel could be attacked by its allies in the region, which Tehran calls "resistance forces," if Israel's attacks on Gaza are not stopped.

In the video report, it was shown on a map that Israel would be targeted simultaneously by missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles from the north by Hezbollah, from the east by militia forces in Iraq and Syria, and from the south by the Houthis in Yemen.

Iran has called for the cessation of Israel's attacks in Gaza many times at the highest level.

Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said in a speech on October 17 that if Israel's attacks continue, the "resistance forces" would take action.

Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian also mentioned the possibility of the conflict spreading to the region in a statement on October 19.

Iran refers to Lebanese Hezbollah, the militias it supports in Syria and Iraq, and the Houthis in Yemen as "resistance forces."
