The U.S. conducted an airstrike in Syria against Iranian-affiliated facilities on Friday in response to a drone attack carried out by a suspected Iranian drone, killing a U.S. contractor and wounding troops.
The U.S. intelligence assesses the UAV(Unmanned Arial-Vehicle) to be of Iranian origin, according to the Pentagon.
In response to the drone attack, President Biden authorized an airstrike in eastern Syria against facilities being used by Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps.
Biden stated that the U.S. "will take all necessary measures" to defend U.S. servicemen.
