US forces in the Middle East have successfully intercepted a series of drone attacks on their bases in Iraq and Syria. The first attack, reported on Thursday, targeted troops stationed at the Al Asad air base in Iraq and the Al-Tanf base in southern Syria, located in the Homs province near the Syrian-Iraqi-Jordanian border triangle. Another US military base, Konitzo in northern Deir, was also targeted. The drones, whose origins are still undetermined, resulted in minor injuries among the troops. US Central Command (CENTCOM) managed to shoot down five drones, preventing significant damage or casualties. The responsible parties for these attacks remain unidentified.
