(Baghdad) This evening a US airstrike near to Baghdad international airport took out Qasem Soleimani the Iranian commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps along with Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis the commander of Iran's proxy Popular Mobilisation Forces inside Iraq
You can find picture of Soleimani's left hand here. Unfortunately I can't tweet this one & other images because my account will be reported by hundreds of #AkTrolls & #Twitter will suspend my account again.https://t.co/izM8hP6CHq— Babak Taghvaee (@BabakTaghvaee) January 3, 2020
It appears that al-Muhandis had arrived at the airport in a convoy to pick up Soleimani who had just landed at the airport . The
airstrike occurred as soon as he descended from the plane to be greeted by
al-Muhandis and his companions, killing them all.
Also on the plane with Soleimani were two senior members of Lebanon's Hezbollah who are reported to have been the main targets of the USAF drone strike They had both had arrived from Damascus via Cham Wings Flight No. 6Q501. One of them is reported to be Mohammad Al-Kothrani!
