US carries out strike on militia leader in Iraq | DW News

In Iraq, a US strike in Baghdad has killed a senior militia leader suspected of plotting recent attacks on American troops in the Middle East. The Pentagon says he was a senior commander of Kata’ib Hezbollah - the Iran-backed group the US says carried out a drone attack in Jordan that killed three US soldiers. A number of groups backed by Tehran have stepped up attacks on US bases since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza.
