In an exclusive report from an airbase where the US soldiers are based in Iraq, CNN described the extent of the damage to the base as unimaginable.

Iran Press/America: The CNN reporter, reporting from the site of an Iranian missile attack at the base of Ain al-Assad, said almost nothing was left untouched.

This is while the US Department of Defense claims no one has been injured despite 10 missiles hit the airbase.

In the early hours of January 8, the IRGC's aerospace unit launched a successful attack against US forces in Ain al-Assad airbase in western Iraq and another in Erbil, in the north of the country.

The attack came in response to a US terrorist drone strike days earlier that martyred one of Iran's top Generals, the former Commander of IRGC's elite Quds Force, Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani.

The Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, described the attack as a “slap in the face” and Iran's Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif called it a "proportionate measure" which came "in self-defense".
