The leader in the movement, Jawad Al-Talibawi, said in a tweet that any other attempt to offend Al-Hashd Al-Shaabi and the resistance factions is "definitely an American attempt and will definitely fail."
For his part, a member of the Asa'ib political bureau, Mahmoud al-Rubaie, said in a tweet, "there is no military presence of the Asa'ib members in Baghdad, and all that is published is either old videos or people we do not even know."
