This Friday, the US launched retaliatory strikes in Iraq and Syria in response to a drone attack in Jordan that killed three US soldiers and wounded 40 others.
The US military says it has already hit more than 85 targets, according to Reuters.
The United States has strengthened defenses at a military base in Jordan attacked by Iran-backed militants, preparing for retaliatory attacks.
At a time when US military retaliation appears inevitable, several Iraqi resistance groups have called for continued attacks on US forces stationed in the Middle East.
In a released statement, Harakat al-Nujaba, one of Iraq’s most powerful militias, announced plans to continue military operations against US troops even as other factions call for a cessation of hostilities following last Sunday’s drone attack in Jordan.
