Harakat al-Nujaba, an armed group within the Popular Mobilisation Forces, has condemned US-Saudi attacks across “safe Iraqi cities”, warning that those killed would be avenged, Al Jazeera reports.

In a statement, it demands the expulsion of US forces from the country, saying their continued presence “has become an imminent threat to the country’s security and stability”.

It also calls for an end to cooperation with Saudi Arabia and for the deployment of advanced air defence systems and threatened retaliatory attacks against US and Saudi interests.
