Iran's English-language Press TV broadcast video shows the moment when its military launched missiles attacks on two Iraqi military bases hosting U.S.-led coalition personnel in revenge for the U.S. killing of Iranian military commander Qassem Soleimani.
The clip features footage of multiple missiles being launched from Iran amid bright orange fire and smoke into the dark sky.

It is worth mentioning that, the Pentagon confirmed the missile strikes, saying in a statement: “It is clear that these missiles were launched from Iran and targeted at least two Iraqi military bases hosting U.S. military and coalition personnel at Al-Assad and Irbil.”
US President Donald Trump on Wednesday said Iran appeared to be "standing down" after missile strikes against Iraqi bases that caused no US casualties, indicating there would be no immediate new military response.
On the other hand, Iranian media confirmed that at least 80 "American terrorists" were killed in the missile strikes.
In televised statement earlier Wednesday, Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei announced that Iran had given its enemy America ‘a slap in the face’ after targeting two Iraqi bases containing US troops with a dozen of ballistic missiles.
‘Last night we slapped them on the face. When it comes to confrontation, the military actions of these kinds are not enough. The corrupt presence of the US should come to an end’.
