Ahlul Bayt News Agency (ABNA.ir), KARBALA, Iraq: There is information that the Shaabaniya Shiite occasion that will occur next week will be targeted by “terrorist groups,” a member of the Karbala Provincial Council said on Wednesday.
“Security forces are prepared for this issue,” Satar al-Ardawi told Aswat al-Iraq news agency.
He noted that the unstable political situation and the delay in forming the new government encourage “terrorist groups” to put such plots.
The holy city of Karbala lies 110 km southwest of Baghdad.
