Top US General: Iranian Missiles Were Intended 'to Kill'

VOA News

   The top U.S. general says Iran was intending "to kill" when it fired
   missiles at Iraq bases used by U.S. forces, contradicting the
   administration's general belief that Iran deliberately avoided
   casualties.

   "In my professional assessment, at al-Asad [Airbase]... the points of
   impact were close enough to personnel and equipment," Joint Chiefs
   Chairman General Mark Milley said Wednesday. "Based on what I saw and
   what I know, they were intended to cause structural damage, destroy
   vehicles and aircraft, and to kill personnel."
