US and Saudi Forces Launch Airstrikes on Iraq PMF Bases
US and Saudi forces have launched coordinated airstrikes on Iran-backed Popular Mobilisation Forces (PMF) bases in Iraq, reportedly killing 20 fighters. The strikes, which were launched in response to alleged drone attacks on Saudi oil facilities, have been met with condemnation from the Iraqi government. The PMF has been a key player in the fight against ISIS in Iraq, and the airstrikes are seen as a response to the ongoing tensions between Iran and the US. The situation in Iraq is expected to remain volatile in the coming days.
