The US military strike that Central Command said killed a Kataib Hezbollah commander in Iraq on Wednesday does not mark the end of a series of retaliatory actions that President Joe Biden authorized early last week.
According to an administration official, there is more to come in response to the deaths of three US soldiers in Jordan.
A White House official said the execution of the attack itself and its timing were carefully planned to avoid any loss of innocent life – and that the US military moved to pursue this commander as soon as the opportunity presented itself. Central Command said there were no indications of collateral damage to civilian casualties.
This official also reiterated what Biden said since the start of US retaliatory strikes last week: “We will not hesitate to defend our people and hold accountable anyone and everyone who tries to harm Americans.”
