US Defence Official ‘Qasem Soleimani’ Reveals How Soleimani Was Killed
Qasem Soleimani, commander of the elite Quds Force of the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC), was killed in a US strike on Baghdad’s international airport.
A US drone carried out a “precision strike” to kill senior Iranian commander Qasem Soleimani and Iraqi paramilitary chief Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis on Friday, a US defence official told AFP.
“A precision drone strike hit two vehicles at Baghdad airport,” the official said.
The official added that part of the 750 forces from the US 82nd Airborne division dispatched to the region a few days ago had already arrived in Baghdad.
“They will head to the US embassy to relieve Marines who had arrived in recent days,” the source said.
