Sun 24 January 2021:
Twelve Hashd al-Shaabi members, including a commander, were killed by the Daesh/ISIS terror group Saturday in Iraq’s Saladin province, according to local media.
Militia group commander Abu Alia al-Hasnawi was among those killed by the 22nd Brigade in the attack. Iraq Joint Operations Command extended condolences for the killing of the commander.
At least 32 people were killed Thursday in twin suicide bombings claimed by Daesh/ISIS in Baghdad.
Iraq declared the group territorially defeated in late 2017, but has continued to battle extremist sleeper cells, mostly in the country’s mountainous or desert areas.
