Iran's IRGC launched several ballistic missile attacks against alleged Israeli espionage targets and a base hosting U.S. military personnel in Iraq's Kurdistan region. Another IRGC-claimed long-range missile attack also hit targets in northern Syria, allegedly linked to the so-called Islamic State.

The strikes on targets in Syria came in response to a devastating ISIS-claimed bombing in Iran's Kerman earlier this year, in which at least 103 were killed, according to Iranian state media. The alleged Mossad base in the capital of Iraq's Kurdistan region was reportedly linked to several targeted killings of senior IRGC commanders since October 7.

The attack also killed oil tycoon Peshraw Dizayee in Erbil, who reportedly facilitated oil exports to Israel. In total, local authorities report at least four dead and five wounded.

Bases of the U.S.-led coalition in Syria and Iraq have come under fire over 100 times since the Palestinian October 7 offensive with rockets and threatening attacks by various non-state militias in retaliation for Washington's support for Israel's war on Gaza. As a result, the U.S. increased its military presence in Iraq and Syria with 1,500 troops, officially announced in early January.
