Iranians Celebrate IRGC’s Missile Attack on US Base (+Video)

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Iranians poured to streets across the country to celebrate IRGC’s missile attacks on US military bases in Iraq in a retaliation for assassination of Lt. Gen Qassm Soleimani.

People across the country gathered in main squares of their home towns to cheer in happiness and chanting anti-US and anti-Israeli slogans after IRGC forces targeted two US military bases in neighboring Iraq.

In the early hours of Wednesday the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) targeted two US airbases in Iraq, including the US airbase of Ain al-Assad in Anbar province in western Iraq.

The attack on the US major air base in Iraq came after Iran pledged to retaliate the US assassination of top Iranian anti-terror commander, Lt. Gen. Qassem Soleimani.

“Tens of surface-to-surface missiles” were fired at the strategic airbase but the exact number is now known now.

US base in Iraq's northern region of Erbil was also among targets.

The attacks were later confirmed by the US officials.
