American sources say that this massive relocation is aimed at reducing friction with Iran and clearing the path to revived nuclear negotiations, as well as decreasing the threat of rocket attacks in the Gulf region by Iran-backed Iraqi militias.
Nonetheless, on Wednesday, July 7, 14 rockets were fired against the big US Ain Al-Asad base in western Iraq, injuring three people. The day before, three unarmed drones were aimed at the US air facility in Irbil in northern Iraq and another drone fell short of the US embassy in Baghdad’s Green Zone. All three are habitually targeted by Iran’s Iraqi proxies.
DEBKAfile’s military sources point out that the transfer of three important US military bases to Jordan is no real protection against attacks by pro-Iranian Iraqi militias. Those militias are still close by, just across the border, and can easily continue attacking US troops from both Iraq and Syria, if ordered to do so by Tehran.
On Wednesday, however, while joining the Europeans in condemning from Vienna Iran’s latest breach of the 2015 nuclear accord by enriching uranium metal to 20pc purity, the US said that the window for diplomacy to allow both itself and Iran to resume compliance remained open.
