There has been an increase in attacks on U.S. forces since the conflict in Israel began on October 7 when militants from the Palestinian group Hamas attacked southern Israel. The White House on Monday said Iran was in some cases "actively facilitating" rocket and drone attacks by Iranian-backed proxy groups on U.S. military bases in Iraq and Syria, and President Biden has directed the Department of Defense to brace for more and to respond appropriately. For more on US military troops movements in the middle east, Vincent Makori will speak with VOA Pentagon correspondent Carla Babb.
