U.S. and Iran-Backed Militia Exchange Rocket Fire, Syria

At approximately 1303 EST, several explosions ripped through the U.S. base at the al-Umar oil field (Cononco) in Dhiban, Syria and inside the perimeter of the Green Village. Several sources reported four rockets fell on the U.S. base, but Pro-Iraqi militia telegram pages reported (5) Fajr-1 rockets targeted the US Base. The launches were confirmed by Pro-Iranian militia groups to have come from al-Mayadin near a crowded marketplace where militants carrying rockets were spotted by civilians on the ground.
