US forces 'respond' to attack in Iraq

U.S. forces on Tuesday "responded" following an attack on them at an Iraq base that caused minor injuries to personnel and damage to infrastructure, a U.S. military official said.

"Following the attack... U.S. forces responded in self-defense against those who carried out the strike," the official said on condition of anonymity when asked about a dawn drone attack in the Abu Ghraib region west of Baghdad.
