"Israeli Airstrikes Target Iranian Forces in Syria, Killing Military Adviser"

Speculation is growing over the timing and scope of expected US strikes against Iran-aligned targets in response to the killing of three Americans, with reports suggesting the strikes may begin within hours and unfold over days or weeks. An overnight Israeli attack on parts of Damascus triggered initial speculation, while Iran's President issued a warning, stating Tehran is ready to respond strongly to any attempts to bully Iran. Widespread reports indicate Iran has pulled its senior officers out of Iraq, leading some Congressional leaders to criticize the Biden administration for telegraphing the strikes too much. US defense officials have cited weather and visibility as major factors in the timing of the strikes, which have been approved against Iranian targets in Iraq and Syria.
