Iran resumes missile attacks as U.S. and Saudis strike Tehran-backed militias in Iraq

The U.S. and Saudi Arabia conducted joint strikes against Tehran-backed militias in Iraq, killing at least 20 fighters. This action ended four days of relative calm and prompted Iran to launch missile attacks against American forces in the Middle East. Furthermore, the U.S. stopped an Iranian surprise attack targeting a U.S. base in Jordan. These events signify a new chapter in the conflict as the U.S. and Saudi Arabia target Iran-backed proxies.
