Air strike hits pro-Tehran Hashd al Shaabi militia group in Baghdad as Iranian top diplomat says his country will respond at an immediate and "maximum level" if Israel acts against its interests.Hashd al Shaabi said an "explosion" had inflicted "material losses" and casualties, without specifying the number of wounded.
Iraq's Popular Mobilization Forces later said its command post at Kalso military base about 50 km south of Baghdad was hit by a huge explosion, and two security sources said it resulted from an air strike. "The blast has caused material damage and injuries," PMF said in a statement, adding that a team was investigating.
The explosion hit the base at Calso, where former pro-Iranian paramilitary group Hashd al Shaabi — now integrated into the regular army — is stationed, said one military official.
