The official spoke on condition of anonymity for not being authorized to speak to the media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said at least three Syrian security members were wounded as well as several Americans. It added that the attacker was a member of the Syrian security force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.S. has hundreds of troops deployed in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/pentagon-congress\/2025\/07\/25\/centcom-strike-kills-isis-leader-in-syria-amid-us-troop-drawdown\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/pentagon-congress\/2025\/07\/25\/centcom-strike-kills-isis-leader-in-syria-amid-us-troop-drawdown\/\">eastern Syria<\/a> as part of a coalition fighting the Islamic State group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last month, Syria joined the international coalition fighting against the IS as Damascus improves its relations with Western countries following last year\u2019s fall of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/opinion\/commentary\/2025\/11\/12\/how-ahmed-al-sharaa-ended-up-being-welcomed-to-the-white-house\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/opinion\/commentary\/2025\/11\/12\/how-ahmed-al-sharaa-ended-up-being-welcomed-to-the-white-house\/\">President Bashar Assad<\/a> when insurgents captured his seat of power in Damascus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The U.S. had no diplomatic relations with Syria under Assad, but ties have warmed since the fall of the five-decade Assad family rule. The interim president, Ahmad al-Sharaa, made a historic visit to Washington last month where he held talks with President Donald Trump.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">IS was defeated in Syria in 2019 but the group\u2019s sleeper cells still carry out deadly attacks in the country. The United Nations says the group still has between 5,000 and 7,000 fighters in Syria and Iraq.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">U.S. troops, which have maintained a presence in different parts of Syria \u2014 including Al-Tanf garrison in the central province of Homs \u2014 to train other forces as part of a broad campaign against IS, have been targeted in the past. One of the deadliest attacks occurred in 2019 in the northern town of Manbij when a blast killed two U.S. service members and two American civilians as well as others from Syria while conducting a patrol.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S. currently has hundreds of troops deployed in eastern Syria as part of a coalition fighting the\u00a0Islamic
