The United States informed Iraq ahead of strikes on Friday against three militant sites inside that country, the White House said, just minutes after the Iraq's military condemned them as a violation of Iraqi sovereignty.

"We did inform the Iraqi government prior to the strikes," White House National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby told reporters.
