Lawmakers from Capitol Hill expressed their concerns over the recent events between the U.S. and Iran. 

Following the killing of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani, Iran launched missile attacks on two Iraqi air bases housing U.S. troops, according to the Associative Press. 

State TV described it early Wednesday as Tehran’s revenge operation over the killing of Soleimani.
