A pro-regime convoy that was struck by US-led warplanes inside Syria

A pro-regime convoy that was struck by US-led warplanes inside Syria this week was likely directed by Iran, Pentagon chief Jim Mattis said Friday.
The strike on the convoy heading toward a coalition garrison near the Jordanian border was "necessitated by offensive movement with offensive capability of what we believe were Iranian-directed forces," Mattis said, adding he was not sure if there were Iranians on the ground.
