[HIGHLIGHTS] ABC: Initial series of strikes on Syria was not carried out by the United States

ABC: Initial series of strikes on Syria was not carried out by the United States. The channel does not specify who carried out the strikes in eastern Syria.

According to Al Hadath, 11 positions of pro-Iranian troops, which are located near the border with Iraq, were fired upon. A new message appeared in the broadcast with reference to American officials that “retaliatory US airstrikes have begun in Syria and Iraq.” The strikes were in response to a recent drone attack on a US base in Jordan.
