(AhlulBayt News Agency) - Iraq’s Popular Mobilisation Forces, an umbrella grouping of mostly Shi’ite militias, said on Sunday it would not remain silent over U.S. air strike that killed 22 of its members across the border in Syria last week.
“To the Americans we say ... we will not be quiet about this attack,” senior PMF commander Jamal Jaafar Ibrahimi, known by his nom de guerre Abu Mahdi al-Mohandes, said in a video message.
In a news conference, Mohandes said the PMF had collected fragments of the missiles used in the strike, which proved that it was a U.S. attack.
This followed by the PMF on Monday, that the U.S. air strike wounded a further 12 of its members in the Syrian border town of Albu Kamal.
