U.S. and Saudi Arabia Bomb Iran-Linked Sites in Iraq Together

On July 29, 2026, the U.S. and Saudi Arabia bombed sites in Iraq tied to armed groups supported by Iran. Saudi Arabia had never fought alongside the U.S. against these groups before. The strikes came after the U.S. bombed targets inside Iran itself on July 18, 19, and 22 — a month of direct military clashes between the two countries.
