Iraq Reports US Airstrike Hit Convoy of Medics North of Baghdad
Strike killed six, wounded three, destroyed two medical vans
Jason Ditz Posted onJanuary 3, 2020CategoriesNewsTagsIraq

With Iraq and the region still reeling after Thursday night’s US drone strike on the Baghdad International Airport, an attack which killed Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani as well as top members of Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Units (PMU), a new US strike was reported Friday night.

Iraqi state media identified the new attack as another US airstrike, near the Taji stadium north of Baghdad. The attack hit a convoy of medics, destroying two medical vans, and killing at least six people, also identified as medical personnel.

Reports suggest that the attack was intended to target a commander within the PMU, and while they declined to say who they thought the US was trying to kill, Twitter reports after the strike initially claimed Ahl al-Haq leader Qais al-Khazali had been killed. This has since been denied, and it appears no PMU commanders were even present in the convoy.

Has this been disproven or unconfirmed?

1. It is being reported on the msn home page.

The problem with Trump lying so much is that we don't know who to believe.

2. Yet another huge reason why we need our own network to get out the truth.

I can't figure out why one of the billionaires who call themselves Democrats can't buy one.

5. A-Fuckin-Men!!!

Free Speech TV tries so damn hard and struggles quarterly begging for viewer support. Bloomberg and others could easily fund a years budget, write it off. But, without bells whistles, couch tumors giving the cult views possible crotch shot, a new media will have to be funded as much as Fux Noise, and be Jesus supported.

4. Just saw the U.S. denial

but you're absolutely right, it's easier to believe Iran than the proven liars in the Trump administration.

7. Yes, this has this been disproven or unconfirmed

Iraq’s military denied on Saturday an air strike had taken place on a medical convoy in Taji, north of Baghdad. Iraqi state television had said they were US air strikes. However, Iraq’s Popular Mobilisation Forces later issued another statement saying that no medical convoys were targeted in Taji.
