By Staff

The US fighter jets attacked several headquarters of Iraqi Resistance forces known as Hashd al-Shaabi [Popular Mobilization Units] and martyred one PMU member plus injured 18 Iraqi forces.

Security sources confirmed to Shafaq News Agency that US warplanes targeted the headquarters of the Popular Mobilization Forces in “Al-Jazaer” area of Hilla in central Babel.

A statement by the White House said that President Joe Biden “directed strikes against three locations utilized by Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups focused specifically on unmanned aerial drone activities.”

Iraqi Resistance groups have conducted operations against US positions in Iraq and neighboring Syria ever since the “Israeli” entity began its aggression against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

The groups say their operations come in retaliation for US’ support of the “Israeli” entity’s crimes against people in Gaza.
