Good for our miltary
The US struck Iran-aligned militias in Iraq late on Monday, officials said.
The strikes came after an attack by militants wounded three US military personnel at a base in Erbil in the northern Kurdistan region.
The Iranian-backed militia Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups had claimed responsibility for that attack.
Baghdad calls strike 'clear hostile act,' reports 1 dead
The Iraqi government condemned the overnight airstrikes on Tuesday morning, calling them "a clear hostile act" and saying they harmed bilateral relations.
"Iraqi military sites were targeted by the American side justifying the act as a response," the Iraqi government said, adding it "resulted in the death of one service member and the injury of 18 others, including civilians."
