Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Units, also known as Al-Hashd al-Shaabi and part of the country’s armed forces, issued a statement on Saturday, condemning the US strikes as a blatant violation of Iraq’s sovereignty and an attempt to weaken the government in Baghdad, according to Al Jazeera.
Palestine’s Islamic Jihad Movement also censured the US attacks against resistance forces in Iraq and Syria, saying that the strikes violated the sovereignty of both Arab countries.
The Islamic Jihad also warned that the American aggression would escalate tensions and instability in the region.
Another Palestinian resistance movement, Hamas, denounced the US attacks as well, noting that Washington is fueling the flames of war.
US Central Command (CENTCOM) said early on Saturday that it carried out attacks in Syria and Iraq in what it said was a retaliation for an attack on a US base in Jordan last Sunday when three American troops were killed.
