The drone strike has killed and injured several people, including top officials of the Iraqi Resistance faction, Kataib Hezbollah.

An attack that targeted a car driving through a road in eastern Baghdad, Iraq, led to the martyrdom of a prominent leader of Iraq’s Kataib Hezbollah, Abu Baqer al-Saedi, also known as “Abu Baqer Diyala”, on Wednesday night, Al Mayadeen‘s correspondent in Iraq reported.

The US Central Command (CENTCOM) claimed that the targeted commander was “responsible for directly planning and participating in attacks on U.S. forces in the region.”
