The strikes have caused damage and death, but on a relatively limited scale. That was clearly Washington’s intension.
Iraqi authorities say 16 people have been killed including civilians in strikes near the Syrian border.
It could have been a lot worse.
There was no element of surprise. The clock began counting down last Sunday after the killing of three US troops in Jordan.
The attacks were carefully calibrated and telegraphed in response. Key figures in Iranian-backed militias had plenty of time to get away from obvious targets.
The militias had a chance to safeguard weapons and ammunition.
Iraq's military has warned the US bombing raids could lead to ‘dire consequences’ for the region.
