Three airstrikes targeted the headquarters of the second regiment of Brigade 18 of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) in al-Qaim district in Iraq’s al-Anbar province on Monday evening, killing two fighters and injuring others.

The PMF said the initial strike hit the regiment’s headquarters, resulting in two fatalities and several injuries. A second airstrike struck the area while medics were attempting to evacuate the dead and wounded, followed by a third strike targeting rescuers during another evacuation attempt.

The PMF accused the “US-Israeli” aircraft of carrying out the attack but did not provide further details.
