Iran has attacked a US airbase in response to Trump’s attack on Qassem Soleimani. Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. MORE TYT: Read more here:
"At least 10 rockets hit al-Asad airbase in Iraq, which houses US forces, a Sunni commander of the paramilitary forces in a nearby town told CNN.
Qatri al-Obeidi, a commander in the nearby town of al-Baghdadi, said that the shelling has stopped for now. President Donald Trump visited the base in December 2018 to visit troops after Christmas. Vice President Mike Pence also visited the base in November 2019. The attack follows last week's deadly US drone strike that Trump ordered to kill key Iranian General Qasem Soleimani."
