American troops in Iraq responded to a rocket attack near Ain al-Asad airbase by carrying out a defensive airstrike.
The airstrike targeted individuals operating unmanned aerial vehicles, which were considered a threat to U.S. and allied forces in the region.
This action demonstrates the United States' commitment to protecting its personnel and its right to defend itself against attacks.
The rocket attack follows a recent incident where four rockets were launched near the airbase, but there were no injuries or damage to the base.
