今日俄羅斯報導,美國與伊朗緊張情勢遽增之際,伊拉克西部美軍使用的艾薩德(Al
Asad)空軍基地遭至少六枚火箭攻擊,甚至有媒體報導,至少30枚飛彈攻擊該基地。這項報導目前尚未證實,有無死傷也不詳,但伊朗法斯通訊社已有影片流出。
美軍日前擊殺伊朗將領蘇雷曼尼,伊朗揚言報複,說有13套劇本,其中之一是以中、長程飛彈攻擊中東美軍基地。
該基地日前傳出遭到攻擊的報導,但美軍否認。
美國總統川普2018年底到過Al Asad基地,美副總統潘斯2019年底也去過這個基地。

the killing of Quds commander Qassem Soleimeni in Baghdad. The
conflict could quickly spiral out of control, dragging in other
world powers including Russia, Turkey and China
