How the US strikes a delicate balance in responding to attacks on its forces by Iran-backed militias
The Biden administration is balancing efforts to deter militants in the Middle East without triggering a broader regional conflict. Iranian-backed militants in Iraq and Syria have long battled with U.S. and coalition forces. There has been a dramatic spike in the attacks since Oct. 17, as civilian deaths in Israel’s war against Hamas began to skyrocket. Most of the more than five dozen attacks have been largely ineffective, but at least 60 U.S. personnel have reported minor injuries and all have returned to duty. The U.S. has walked a delicate line in response to the attacks, striking the groups just three times.
