6 killed in airstrike north of Baghdad targeting convoy carrying Shia militia members – report

A convoy carrying members of the Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), an umbrella group of Iran-backed militias, was hit by an airstrike while traveling in Baghdad, media report.

 

The three-car convoy was struck in the northern outskirts of the Iraqi capital in the district of al-Taji, according to an Iraqi military source cited by Reuters. Six militiamen were reported killed in the attack, with three others critically injured. It remains unclear who carried out the strike.

 

The six killed in the strike have yet to be named, but early reports suggesting they hit two paramilitary commanders – Shibl al-Zaydi, secretary general of the Kataib al-Imam militia, as well as Qais al-Khazali, leader of Asaib Ahl al-Haq – were refuted by the PMF in a statement.

The US unofficially denies this strike

    • As you said Trump is the master, through his tweets he has the Dems making fools out of themselves daily and is expanding his area of operation to trolling Iran and getting them to make errors that are going to lead to a disaster for the Iranian government.

  2. Trump promised overwhelming force and disproportionate response to attacks on the US and US personal, he is keeping his word and putting the Iranian leadership on notice that if they order attacks on Americans they aren’t safe.

  3. I wrote a thank-you note to PTrump for Muhandis and Soleimani.
    Now, more goodies!
