Biden spox John Kirby on Sunday morning callously brushed off news of US troops “undergoing evaluation” for traumatic brain injuries after Iran-backed terrorists launched a missile attack in Iraq.
A number of US troops were injured after Iran-backed terrorists launched missiles at al-Assad Airbase in Western Iraq.
“At approximately 6:30 p.m. (Baghdad time) time Jan. 20, multiple ballistic missiles and rockets were launched by Iranian-backed militants in Western Iraq targeting al-Assad Airbase. Most of the missiles were intercepted by the base’s air defense systems while others impacted on the base. Damage assessments are ongoing. A number of U.S. personnel are undergoing evaluation for traumatic brain injuries. At least one Iraqi service member was wounded.” – US Central Command said on Saturday.
