Israel Bombs Iran

An Israeli airstrike on eastern Syria has killed more than eight fighters from Iraq’s Iran-backed Hashed al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Force – PMF).

A United States of America, USA, drone strike also killed Iranian Commander Qassem Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the PMF head, last week.

Israel launched the attack on areas considered Iranian interests Friday morning.

“Unidentified aircraft targeted vehicles and arms depots in the Albu Kamal area, causing a large explosion.

“At least eight Iraqi Hashed fighters were killed,” said Rami Abdel Rahman, the head of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

He said that several others were wounded.

The Britain-based organization said three villages in the Albu Kamal area known for housing forces loyal to Tehran have been targeted by drone strikes since Wednesday.
