U.S Troops Bombed Near Baghdad Airport: Resistance 'Salaam' To New Iran Prez As Pezeshkian Visits

As Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian arrives in Iraq on a high-profile diplomatic visit, U.S. troops stationed near Baghdad International Airport have come under attack. Reports suggest that the strike, orchestrated by local resistance forces, serves as a symbolic "salaam" or message of defiance amid Pezeshkian's visit. The assault underscores the heightened tensions in the region, as Iranian-backed militias continue to challenge U.S. military presence in Iraq. The timing of the incident during the Iranian president’s visit adds another layer of complexity to the delicate geopolitical balance in the Middle East. No immediate reports of casualties have been confirmed, but the attack signals ongoing resistance against U.S. influence in Iraq. #BaghdadAttack #IranUSConflict #PezeshkianVisit #ResistanceStrike #USMilitary #IraqTensions #MiddleEastCrisis #IranBackedMilitias #GeopoliticalTensions #BaghdadBombing #USForcesTargeted #IranIraqRelations #SymbolicSalaam #USMilitaryBase #RegionalConflict ~PR.152~ED.101~GR.344~
