Washington: In light of the high-profile attack on an air base in Iraq where US troops are stationed, the Pentagon expects new attacks on its contingent in the region in the coming days, the US local media reported, citing a source.

Earlier, a US Defence Department spokesperson said in a statement to Sputnik that at least several US servicemen had been injured in the attack on the Ain al-Asad airbase in Anbar province in western Iraq.

According to the Axios portal, the Pentagon expects new attacks by pro-Iranian militias on US troops in the region in the coming days. Growing tensions in the region make the militias feel less restrained by Iran in regard to attacks on US troops than in recent months, the publication noted.

The publication also said President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris had been reportedly informed that US national security officials did not yet know when an attack on Israel might begin.
