On February 2, local time, John Kirby, spokesman for the White House Committee, said that the U.S. military operations in the Middle East on the 2nd attacked a total of seven military facilities, three of which were in Iraq and four in Syria. The U.S. military targeted targets previously linked to attacks on U.S. troops to send a message to Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps that attacks on U.S. military bases must stop.
Kirby said that Iraq** learned of the attack before the United States announced the launch of military operations on the evening of the 2nd, and the United States does not know how many militants were killed or wounded, and the United States military operations will continue in the next few days.
In addition, Douglas Sims, Pentagon's senior chief of operations and director of operations at the Joint Staff, said that the U.S. military operation that day was carried out by a number of U.S. aircraft, including multiple B-1 bombers sent from the United States, as well as a number of aircraft in the U.S. Command's operational area.
On the afternoon of the 2nd Eastern Time, the U.S. military carried out airstrikes on targets of Iranian-backed militant groups in Syria and Iraq.
