At least two commanders of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) were killed and six others were wounded in a drone strike that targeted the headquarters of the Iranian-backed group in eastern Baghdad on January 4, according to Iraqi media.
Videos posted to social media showed burned vehicles and smoke rising from the targeted headquarters, which is reportedly located within a complex of the Iraqi Interior Ministry in Palestine neighborhood.
One of the commanders killed in the drone strike was identified as Mushtaq Talib “Abu Taqwa” al-Saidi, a senior commander of Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba who was responsible for the PMF’s 12th Brigade and held the position of deputy commander of operations around Bahgada. The other commander was reportedly al-Saidi’s deputy.
Iraqi media also reported that a senior commander of the PMF’s intelligence service was among the six wounded in the strike.

The PMF was formed by Iranian-backed armed factions in Iraq to fight ISIS in 2014. Four years later, the Iraqi government fully reorganized the group.
No side has claimed responsibility for the deadly strike on the PMF headquarters in Baghdad yet. In recent months, the United States launched several strikes against factions of the PMF in different parts of Iraq in response to a wave of attacks that targeted its bases in Iraq and neighboring Syria.
The attacks began on October 17, ten days after the outbreak of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip. The so-called Islamic Resistance in Iraq (IRI) claimed responsibility for most of the attacks, saying that they were carried out in support of the Palestinian people.
The IRI is also an umbrella group made up of armed factions which are backed by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)
Some of the PMF’s key factions, like Harakat Hezbollah al-Nujaba and Kata’ib Hezbollah, are thought to be also members of the IRI.
The assassination of Abu Taqwa was the most recent in a series of attacks targeting key commanders of the Iranian-led Axis of Resistance in the Middle East.
Brigadier General Razi Mousavi of the IRGC’s elite Quds Force was assassinated near the Syrian capital, Damascus, on December 25. Later on January 2, Saleh al-Arouri, deputy leader of the Palestinian Hamas Movement, was killed outside the Lebanese capital, Beirut. Israel was blamed for both assassinations.
Besides its attacks against U.S. bases in Iraq and Syria, the IRI have claimed responsibility for several attacks that targeted the southernmost Israeli city of Eilat, the occupied Syrian Golan Heights and the Karish gas field off Israel’s shores.
you cannot air strike your way out of what’s coming to the decaying west. the westoid morons do not understand it yet. they think they can bomb weddings, hospitals and funerals and ‘win’
in the west the vast majority of the boomers doesn’t understand the jews own their countries. goyim are totally brainwashed by the televi zion.
yes, those that ‘believe’ the jewish fantasy are mostly older people who have been brainwashed by the boob tube. a lot of younger people are not so easily fooled, they use other forms of information that are less tainted and are able to form different opinions based in reality. zio control is slipping. there are trumpets who are conundrums, but most are zionist like diaper don. america first, my ass.
i agree with your post, but i see a problem elsewhere. as in late 2006 us invader army in iraq was completely destroyed, but because usa &iran made a deal (as both wanting to get rid of saddam’s iraq), and started using shia death squads to kill off the sunni population of the vast sunni populated iraqi areas, and even allowed the us to keep boots on the ground and us corps to pump off iraq oil – iran now is forced to see that it was a two-bladed sword.
yes, us and saddam got into war against each other and the laughing winner of that battle was iran. but this result came with a price tag on it. iran bought time, and deflected the us-israeli attention away from iran, by offering usirael a cuffed, butchered and chopped iraq on a silverplate, killing off the true heroeous sunni iraqi resistance, and replaced it with iranian sponsored shia death squads and militias.
but this deal with the usraeli devil is now backfiring – and usrael is killing important iranian generals, hezbollah commmanders, high level hamas commanders etc. around the whole middle east basically at will. so iran is close to becoming the laughing-stock of all pro-israeli assholes around the world. because iran just talks but never strikes back.
even the remnants of the saddam forces, the real iraqi resistance killed off 2-4 us soldiers in iraq each single day from 2003 – 2007. in hightimes of the resistance war (in 2004 even up to 20 us soldiers per day – see fallujah/jolan district, and al-karmah in sunni triangle etc.)
if iran keeps talking big mouth without letting action follow their words – action that is painfull for the us – menaing killing a large bunch of us-soldiers or other us or israeli officials, then noone – including the usa, eu or israel will give a damn ratfart anymore about their threats against them.
and btw. if you wonder why you not find news about the deal that usa & iran did. it’s because it’s a secret – but an open secret. it was done by the iran-controlled highest shia religious figure in iraq,the smelly traitor of iraq, grandayatollah ali al-sistani.
that guy (al-sistani), amid hightime of fiercest sunni & shia iraqi resistance against the us&uk invaders, suddenly went to the uk. with us & uk medias claiming he had an “heart operation” done in uk (london).but of course he was the guy ordered to make & sign the secret deal with the invaders. no doubt about that. see: http://rlu.ru/3isoq
the zionist entity desperately trying to drag the us into a wider war as they both circle the drain
as usual there will be warnings, warnings…… get a few balls and send balistiq missils to the culprids, yankees and the illegal entity israhell !!!! toys against the yankee bases are not going to get them out off the mid east.
and so the next escalation begins. this all couldn’t happen to a planet of less deserving people, the shame of everybody on this exquisite and pure planet ending it all. *big tears* /s not even a tenth of the people on the planet are worth anything they’re such cowards and watchers and participaters in evil, excuse makers and all around cowardly trash who wouldn’t lift a finger for you but demand you do everything difficult for them. good riddance to all the scummy losers.
the pmf was originally not „iranian backed“ nor had it much to do with iran. the closer ties were established after the „reorganization“ which changed pretty much everything except the name.
whoever is behind these assassinations seems rather desperate.
its time for resistance to kill the us soldier on tier basxes with drone now. us is targeting resistance to kill them. so resistance should not have mercy. now let the war begins
iraq government is owned by usa and they are taking targets from shin bet israel. there is a big war in front, and i guess israel started this deliberately, before the israel terror attacks we got information that something big would happen in israel in q2 q3 2023. i didn’t pay attention because i know how israeli services work in palestina and nearby countries. big war in the future in israel, and they will win for sure, that’s why they started in the first place. just like 9/11 in usa.
it’s your own fault for letting them have airfields unfettered in the region, that’s how they use that against you.
for every “commander” they kill, 10s of new recruits sign up, as unemployment is high, and hatred of the western regimes grow. hahahaha 🤡
