U.S. troops attacked in Iraq and Syria, now on alert for more strikes

Regional tensions continue to soar as the Israel-Hamas war rages on.

The Pentagon says a U.S. Navy warship intercepted three cruise missiles and several drones launched by the Iran-aligned Houthi movement from Yemen potentially toward Israel on Thursday.

As regional tensions soar during the Israel-Hamas war, Washington is on heightened alert for activity by Iran-backed groups.

The destroyer, USS Carney was operating in the northern Red Sea on Thursday when it brought down the projectiles and there were no injuries the Pentagon said.

According to U.S. officials, U.S. troops have been repeatedly attacked in Iraq and Syria in recent days.

President Joe Biden has sent naval power to the Middle East in the past two weeks, including two aircraft carriers, other warships and about 2,000 Marines.

Since the conflict in Israel broke out on Oct. 7 when Palestinian militants from Hamas attacked southern Israel, there has been an uptick in attacks on U.S. forces.

On Wednesday, a drone hit U.S. forces in Syria resulting in minor injuries, while another one was brought down. #Pentagon #drones #dronestrike #Navy #Yemen #Houthi

MDMA is a drug commonly known as molly or ecstasy.

Some medical professionals say it can be helpful for people with post-traumatic stress disorder — which is why a group has been fighting to get MDMA legalized as a prescription drug.

Currently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is reviewing an application to use MDMA to treat PTSD. The agency is expected to announce its ruling as soon as August.
