More than 20 US troops were wounded last week in drone attacks on US bases in Iraq and Syria. This was reported by NBC News with reference to the Central Command of the US Armed Forces.

According to them, 20 soldiers were wounded at the At-Tanf base in Syria, and four more people were injured at the Ain al-Assad base in Iraq. As the TV channel states, military facilities were not damaged by the attacks.
