Baghdad: US airstrikes again against Iran. Six people were killed in the attack this morning. This comes just days after the head of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, General Qasim Sulaimani, was killed in a US invasion. Several people were injured in the accident.
The attack took place on Taji Road in northern Baghdad. The attack was on the Iranian-backed Iraqi paramilitary wing. Two cars were destroyed. Four members were injured.
International media reports that US forces have targeted a senior commander in the army. However, sources said that there was no senior commander in the fleet.

US President Donald Trump has said that the airstrikes in Baghdad was aimed at curbing Iranian violence. He said the action was to end the war and not to start the war. In the wake of the latest developments, the US has said it will deploy more troops to the Middle East.
