US military forces have been targeted in two separate drone attacks injuring some troops

We’ve been getting reports of a drone and rocket attack on the Ain al-Asad airbase that hosts US and other international forces in western Iraq.
According to the Reuters news agency, multiple blasts were heard inside the base.
Ain al-Asad air base is located in the western Anbar province.

Meanwhile in a separate incident, US Navy has intercepted 3 missiles in the Northern Red Sea.
The Pentagon says they believe this was a Houthi attack launched from Yemen and that preliminary evidence suggests the drones and missiles were potentially heading towards Israel.

Al Jazeera’s Mahmoud Abdelwahed is in Baghdad, Iraq and Patty Culhane in Washington DC monitoring the latest developments.
