remain limited at this time.

This event follows a series of recent attacks against U.S. forces in both Iraq and Syria.

The strikes, executed around 4:30 AM local time in Syria (0130 GMT), utilized precision munitions and were carried out by two American F-16 fighter jets, according to the Pentagon.
