US Military Escalates Action in Syria: Second Strike Against Iranian-backed Groups in 48 hours
The US military has launched a second round of air strikes in Syria, targeting Iranian-backed fighters, marking the second operation in just two days.
This escalation comes in response to increasing tensions and attacks against US forces in the region.
The strikes are part of a broader effort to counter the growing influence of Iran and its allied militias in Syria, as well as to safeguard US troops deployed in the area.
As the situation intensifies, what will be the next move from both the US and Iran-backed forces?
Watch this video for more on the latest developments in the ongoing conflict.
The US military has launched a series of airstrikes targeting sites in Syria associated with Iran-aligned groups, a day after an assault on Americaâs largest command centre in the region. The strikes, conducted by US Central Command, were in retaliation for recent attacks on US personnel stationed in Syria. Centcom emphasised that the action was a direct response to the escalating violence aimed at American forces, underscoring the US's commitment to protecting its troops and partners in the region.
The airstrikes, which hit multiple sites believed to be linked to Iranian-backed militias, aim to degrade the ability of these groups to plan and execute future attacks against US forces. The US military presence in Syria, primarily focused on combating ISIS remnants, has faced increasing threats from Iran-aligned militias, complicating efforts to stabilise the region. Centcom's statement reinforced that such attacks on US forces would not be tolerated, sending a strong message to Tehran-backed militants. The escalation comes amid growing tensions in Syria, where Iran-backed groups maintain a significant presence, particularly in the east.

A deadly attack on the largest U.S. military command post in Syria has sent shockwaves through the region. Multiple rockets were fired at the base located at the al-Omar Oilfield in Dayr al-Zawr, Syria, triggering a series of powerful explosions. The assault marks a significant escalation in tensions between U.S. forces and regional resistance groups. While the full extent of the damage remains unclear, sources report widespread destruction at the command post, a key U.S. operational hub in Syria. The attack follows a pattern of increasing resistance strikes against American positions in the country and comes amid growing geopolitical volatility in the Middle East.

In a stunning admission, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has confirmed that he authorized the deadly pager and radio bombings in Lebanon and Syria on September 17, 2024, which killed dozens and injured thousands. Despite opposition from senior Israeli military officials, Netanyahu greenlit the operation, reportedly carried out by Israel's Mossad. The attacks, which targeted Hezbollah militants and their infrastructure, sparked a wave of violence in the region and contributed to the rising tensions between Israel, Hezbollah, and other regional powers.
