THREE AMERICAN TROOPS INJURED IN ROCKET ATTACKS IN SYRIA

Three American troops were injured in two rocket attacks in Syria earlier in the day, and the United States responded with strikes from attack helicopters, US Central Command (CENTCOM) said in a statement.

“One US service member in Mission Support Site Conoco was treated for a minor injury and has been returned to duty. ”Two others are being evaluated for minor injuries,” Sputnik reported, citing the CENTCOM. CENTCOM said on Wednesday that suspected Iran-backed militants launched several rockets at two US facilities housing American troops in both Conoco and Green Village in northeast Syria on Wednesday evening. However, the US forces responded by using attack helicopters and destroying three vehicles and equipment used to launch several rockets, the statement said. Initial assessments indicated that the US forces killed two or three of the suspected militants that conducted one of the attacks, Sputnik reported, citing sources.

An investigation into the attack is underway.
