The U.S. Central Command did not give the nationalities of the victims of the attack, which happened on Thursday, with wounded evacuated for further medical treatment.

The attack targeted personnel taking part in Operation Inherent Resolve, the U.S.-led drive to fight the Islamic State group in Syria and Iraq.
