Iran Press/ Middle East: Iraqi cleric and politician who led the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq from 2009 to 2017 Seyyed Ammar Hakim condemned violating Iraq's sovereignty and bombardment of Popular Mobilization Forces (Hashaad al Shaabi) positions by US forces.
Seyyed Ammar Hakim, leader of the Iraqi National Wisdom Movement, said in a message in response to yesterday's US attacks on Hashd al-Shaabi's positions.
"We condemn and denounce the violation of Iraqi sovereignty by foreign aircraft and the bombardment of the positions of Hashed al-Shaabi and security forces in Karbala, Babil, Wasit, Salah al-Din and other areas, as well as some civilian installations." He said.
He warned against turning Iraq into a field of political and military strife and said: "We call on the Iraqi government to restore its rightful and proper role in restoring the authority of the government and maintaining the sovereignty of the country against any attack.
