1/ Iran launched more than a dozen ballistic missiles at two Iraqi military bases housing U.S. troops Tuesday night in retaliation for the assassination of Iranian Gen. Qasem Soleimani. No U.S. or Iraqi casualties have been reported. Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei called the strikes a "slap in the face" to the U.S. and not sufficient retaliation for the killing of Soleimani.
