In the midst of the holiday season, President Joe Biden ordered military strikes in Iraq on Christmas Day. The strikes were in response to an attack by the militant group Kataib Hezbollah, which targeted and injured four individuals, including three American service members, one of whom is in critical condition.
The attack that prompted President Biden's order was carried out by a one-way attack drone or a suicide drone, specifically targeting U.S. forces in Erbil, Iraq, situated in Iraqi Kurdistan. This attack marked a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between the United States and Iranian proxies in the region.
