Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) has once again warned US allies not to interfere in Iran's military operation dubbed "Martyr Soleimani" and threatened to take retaliatory action, Iran's Tasnim news agency reported.
According to a military source, about five missiles were fired at Camp Taji – a military base of the US-led coalition 27km from the Iraqi capital Baghdad. Meanwhile, Sputnik quoted another military source in Tehran as saying that Iranian military aircraft were flying in border areas when the airstrikes took place.
Earlier in the early morning of January 8, Iran fired dozens of missiles at the US bases in Ayn al-Asad Air and Erbil in Iraq./.
