The US military has launched retaliatory airstrikes on two locations in eastern Syria linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps, the Pentagon has said.

Sky's Alex Rossi says the US was reportedly keen to keep a lid on this "being perceived as escalatory", but 19 US personnel have suffered traumatic brain injuries in those strikes over the past weeks.

He says the Pentagon justified the strikes as a "response to nearly two weeks of rockets and missile fire on American troops and assets in the region."
