In the same context, an Iraqi security source revealed to Al-Mayadeen that the attack on the American wing at the Ain Al-Assad base on June 6, affected the "Patriot" system radar at the base and destroyed it.

And last month, May, the "Ain al-Assad" base was targeted with three missiles, according to our correspondent.

At the time, the coalition forces, led by Washington, spoke of a "missile attack on the Ain al-Assad airbase," noting that the attack "did not cause casualties among al-Qaeda members."

In the same month, the Security Media Cell reported that a booby-trapped drone had fallen on the Ain al-Assad Air Base in Anbar Governorate, without causing any casualties.
