U.S. Drone Strike Kills Iranian-Backed Militia Leader in Baghdad, Sparking Iraq's Condemnation
The United States conducted a military strike in Baghdad, targeting a member of Harakat al-Nujaba, an Iranian proxy group, who had been involved in actions against US forces. The strike's success and potential casualties are still being assessed. This action reflects ongoing tensions in the Middle East, including attacks on US and coalition forces in Iraq and Syria, and is part of the US's efforts to deter aggression in the region. The Iraqi government's stance on the strike within its capital is not yet clear, and there are concerns about sovereignty and the US's call for Iraq to better protect coalition forces.
