Al-Fayyad: US aggression will not go unnoticed and Iraq must be cleansed of foreign presence
Shafaq News / The head of the Popular Mobilization Committee, Faleh al-Fayyad, said on Sunday that the US aggression on the headquarters of Anbar operations for the mobilization "will not go unnoticed."
Al-Fayyad added in a speech during the funeral of the victims of the crowd who died in the US bombing on the areas of Al-Qaim and Akashat in Anbar, and followed by the Shafaq News Agency, that "the American aggression was a direct targeting of the Popular Mobilization Forces," explaining that "this incident will not go unnoticed because it represents a rude targeting. "
He continued, "We will not accept that the blood of our sons is a cheap political material," stressing that "the land of Iraq must be cleansed of foreign presence."
The death toll of the strikes by the United States forces on the mobilization sites in Anbar province on Sunday rose to 17 victims, after an official security source reported the death of the commander of the third battalion of the Armor Fighting Directorate of the Popular Mobilization Forces from his wounds.
The US military's Central Command reported early Saturday that its forces had carried out air strikes in Iraq and Syria targeting positions of Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Quds Force and affiliated militia groups.
