The U.S. military launched airstrikes on three locations in western Iraq on Tuesday, targeting facilities used by the Iranian-backed militant group Kataib Hezbollah. These strikes come in response to a series of attacks by militant groups on U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria, which have occurred over 150 times since mid-October. However, there are growing concerns about the possibility of the U.S. being drawn into yet another conflict in the Middle East. This is due to its support for Israel in its battle against Hamas, as well as its assistance to Ukraine in repelling Russian invaders. VOA Pentagon correspondent Carla Babb provides further insights into this escalating situation.
