“Correction: the first series of strikes was not inflicted by us,” the TV channel said in its online broadcast.
The channel does not specify who carried out the strikes in eastern Syria.
Moreover, 18 minutes later, at 00:17 Moscow time, a new message appeared in the broadcast with reference to American officials that “retaliatory US airstrikes have begun in Syria and Iraq.”
ABC previously reported that the United States began launching strikes in Syria in response to a recent drone attack on a US base in Jordan.
According to Al Hadath, 11 positions of pro-Iranian troops, which are located near the border with Iraq, were fired upon.
