Iraq: Four US Supply Convoys Attacked In Babylon, Dhi Qar, Al-Qadisiyyah & Muthanna

Late on June 13, a convoy transporting logistic supplies and equipment for the US-led coalition came under attack in the central Iraqi province of Babylon.

The convoy was reportedly targeted with a number of improvised explosive devices as it was passing near the city of Hillah. No human losses were reported by Iraqi sources as a result of the attack.

The pro-Iranian Islamic Resistance in Iraq – ‘Ashab al-Kahf claimed responsibility for the attack. The group was among the first to launch attacks against US forces in Iraq following the assassination of Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, Deputy-Commander of Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Units, and Iranian Quds Force Leader Maj. Gen. Qassim Soleimani.

“We will not let you experience the taste of comfort and joy … US occupation forces are in the crossfire of the Mujahedeen of Islam in Iraq,” the group said in a post on its official Telegram channel after the attack.

A few minutes after the attack in Hillah, three supply convoys of the US-led coalition was targeted in southern Iraq. The first was targeted near the city Nasiriyah in the province of Dhi Qar, the second came under attack and near the city of al-Diwaniyah in the province of al-Qadisiyyah and the third was attacked near the city of Samawah in the province of Muthanna.

So far, US-led coalition has failed to put an end to these attacks. Desperate to obtain information on the attacks, Washington offered a $3 million reward. However, it ended up being laughed at by Iraqis on social media.

Looks like those in Eastern province of the Jews’ “Greater Israel” are not happy with their subjugation.

Arch Bungle

Greater Israel is never going to happen.

Thats pretty obvious when you see the world superpower us still in Iraq after more than 20 years.

Este es el mismo método que tienen que utilizar los grupos de la resistencia en Siria, para atacar convoyes de las fuerzas de EE.UU y del ejército Turco y sus milicias aliadas en Idlib y todas la zonas ocupadas por las tropas extranjeras deben de estar permanentemente inseguros y en estado de alerta, tienen que saber que van ser blancos de la resistencia y no van a poder moverse con facilidad en un territorio que no les pertenece ni les pertenecerá jamás!!

True but the civilians will probably suffer the consequences in some of those areas. It may turn the civilians against the forces in control or blame those doing the attacks. Idlib is made up with groups bussed there after surrendering and locals with what appears to be different groups against each other and Assad.

Es cierto, pero los civiles probablemente sufrirán las consecuencias en algunas de esas áreas. Puede volver a los civiles contra las fuerzas que controlan o culpar a los que realizan los ataques. Idlib está formado por grupos llevados allí después de rendirse y lugareños con lo que parecen ser grupos diferentes entre sí y Assad.

” No human losses were reported by Iraqi sources as a result of the attack. ”

What a comedy show. The Houthis and the Taliban need to teach them some things.

ERWIN VERCAUTEREN

This is possibly done on purpose because the drivers of these trucks are just poor local drivers who have no affiliation with the Yanks they are only trying to make a living and feed their families imho

So the convoys are attacked by the drivers family to get a rise

With that sort of logic one , no change that to everyone will question if you can even play chess .

There are no Americans in these convoys, they’re all hiding in their super fortified bunkers in the green zone.

When you are a hostile imperial occupation force these things happen – the very term ‘guerilla’ warfare comes from Spanish, as result of Spanish popular opposition, and small ambush attacks, against the powerful occupying French Napoleonic Grande Armee – and its imperial aims for Continental dominance.
