[Regnum] At least 15 rockets were fired in the early morning of November 9 at a US military base near the Al-Omar oil field in eastern Syria. The attack was reported by Al Mayadeen TV channel.

The Shiite movement Iraqi Islamic Resistance
...yet another of Iran’s sockpuppets...
claimed responsibility for the attack.

There is no information about the consequences of the attacks or details.

As Regnum reported , a powerful explosion was heard near the Al-Harir military airfield in Erbil province in Iraqi Kurdistan, where the forces of the American army are concentrated.

A drone again attacked the American military base of Ain al-Assad in Anbar province in western Iraq.

Pentagon chief Lloyd Austin said the United States sees prospects for escalation and an increased risk of attacks on its forces in the Middle East region. He recalled recent drone attacks on US troops in Iraq and Syria, adding that the Pentagon is doing everything necessary to ensure US forces are ready and able to respond.
The Times of Israel adds:
Within the past day, Death Eaters have launched two separate attacks using multiple rockets against US and coalition forces operating at Green Village, Syria, and a one-way drone attack was launched against US and Coalition forces at Mission Support Site Euphrates, Syria.

There were three minor injuries reported in the Green Village attacks but all personnel returned to duty.

No other injuries or damage was reported in the strikes, according to defense officials who provided details of the attacks on the condition of anonymity to discuss details not yet made public.

According to deputy press secretary Sabrina Singh, US and coalition forces have been attacked 46 times since October 17, injuring 56 personnel. All have returned to duty, Singh says.
