Original Note:
Iranian backed proxies attacked a US base in Jordan, not Syria. Jordan asked the US to be there due to the unstable nature of the region, which includes Syria. Iran backed proxies operating there, the Fatemiyoun and Zainebiyoun militias are Iranian state actors. https://www.defensenews.com/global/mideast-africa/2023/10/30/jordan-asks-us-to-deploy-patriot-air-defense-systems/ https://apnews.com/article/attack-military-iran-iraq-houthis-229a735edbb7759ba9ade543013917df https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liwa_Fatemiyoun
