CENTCOM Commander Gen. Kenneth “Frank” McKenzie said March 15 that Iranian missiles that struck near a U.S. consulate in Iraq over the weekend were aimed at other targets.
McKenzie’s statements were made at a Senate committee hearing on CENTCOM, buttressing the State Department’s assessment of Iranian missile strikes that occurred in the late hours of March 12 in Erbil, a Kurdistan region of Iraq. His statements also come as U.S. and Iranian officials attempt to massage the final details of a nuclear treaty.
