A U.S. service member was wounded in a series of new attacks Friday targeting U.S. bases in Syria following Thursday’s fatal drone attack on a U.S. base, a U.S. official confirmed to CBS News.

On Thursday, a U.S. contractor was killed — and five U.S. service members and a second U.S. contractor wounded — when a suspected Iranian drone hit a coalition base in Syria, according to U.S. officials.

Following that initial attack, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said in a statement that U.S. Central Command forces retaliated with “precision airstrikes” against facilities in eastern Syria used by groups affiliated with Iran’s Revolutionary Guard. The Defense Department said the intelligence community had determined the unmanned aerial vehicle used in the Thursday attack was of Iranian origin.
