Iran's IRGC claims it targeted US command center in Syria, state media reports

Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC) reportedly claimed responsibility for attacking a U.S. special operations command center located in al-Tanf, Syria, as retaliation for the killing of Iranian soldiers in Iranshahr. This information was reported by Iranian state media, though Reuters could not confirm the claim independently. The U.S. military had previously withdrawn from the al-Tanf base, which is situated at the border of Syria, Jordan, and Iraq. Syria has consistently aimed to avoid involvement in regional conflicts, with President Ahmed al-Sharaa stating that the country would remain neutral unless directly attacked. Additionally, the IRGC asserted that Iran maintains full control over the Strait of Hormuz and would halt all oil and gas exports through the strait as long as U.S. attacks continue.
