Mustafa Al-Kadhimi, the outgoing Iraqi PM said that he was subject to an early dawn assassination attempt by drones this morning and he survived.
Mr. Al-Kadhimi, an appointee by the USA, called for calm and restraint in the country to pass through these difficult times in a recorded video statement aired through his Twitter account.
The Iraqi ministry of interior said that 3 drones attacked the residence of the prime minister at dawn, his bodyguards shot down 2 and the 3rd injured 6 of his bodyguards, none of his family members seem to be living in the residence which is in the heavily fortified Green Zone in the Iraqi capital Baghdad.
Droning people is a US specialty exported later to a number of its allied countries, Trump used the same to kill Iranian top official General Qassem Soleimani during an official visit to Iraq early last year, even though Obama promoted this technique and Trump should've abolished it as he did to everything Obama did as he promised to do and did the opposite to his promises...
The US and those in its camp denounced the incident, it's yet to be concluded who was behind the attempt on the life of the Iraqi PM that is if it was proven there was any such thing as his critics, and they're plenty in Iraq, called it a hoax to boost his poor popularity and a day after his security forces 'shot down' several civilians and burns their tents in Baghdad killing and injuring a number of them, they were protesting the results of the latest parliamentary elections supervised by Mr. Al-Kadhimi.
