US Threatens Possible Military Action Over Iraq Rocket Attack White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki suggested last week's Syria airstrikes could be a 'model' for a response
The US is considering military action over a rocket attack on the Al Asad US military base in western Iraq on Wednesday. A US contractor died of a heart attack after 10 rockets hit the base.
“Thank God, no one was killed by the rocket, but one individual, a contractor, died of a heart attack,” President Biden said of the incident. “But we’re identifying who’s responsible and we’ll make judgments.”
