At least 7 missiles struck the American military airbase Balad.

One of the largest US military air bases in Iraq was hit by another powerful blow from Iranian forces. According to information available to the news agency Avia.pro, a total of 7 missiles were fired at the American military airbase. as there is conflicting evidence that 4 missile strikes were carried out along the perimeter of the airbase, and three missiles fell outside the US military facility.

Officially, not a single pro-Iranian group present on the territory of Iraq claimed responsibility for the strikes on the American military airbase, however, apparently, this is due to fears that the United States may launch new strikes on pro-Iranian forces on the territory of the same Iraq or neighboring Syria.

Another fact is noteworthy - the American air defense systems deployed on the territory of the Balad airbase did not react in any way to the missile strike, practically not noticing them, which indicates the low efficiency of the Patriot air defense systems deployed here.
