The United States has carried out an airstrike against an Iran-backed militia in Syria, according to reports.
President Joe Biden ordered his first military action as commander-in-chief on Thursday in an apparent response to rocket attacks against the US in Iraq.
Officials said the strike was against a structure belonging to the militia, according to Reuters.
The strike, ordered by Mr Biden, was designed to damage the group’s ability to carry out further attacks, a defence official also told Politico.
Reuters contributed to this report.
