Attacks on US in Iraq becoming a dangerous cycle: Analysts
Al Jazeera
Observers say even if neither side wants the conflict to escalate, attacks have become a dangerous tit-for-tat cycle.
Pro-Iran militias are “playing with fire” by attacking American interests in Iraq and the recent escalation in tit-for-tat strikes could spiral out of control, analysts warn. Two dozen rockets were fired towards the Ain Al-Assad base in western Anbar governate that houses Iraqi and American forces on Tuesday in a brazen assault that wounded two service members. A missile launcher used in the attack exploded near the base and damaged several buildings, including a mosque.More Related News
