BAGHDAD: Iran’s top commander Qasem Soleimani was killed on Friday in a US strike on Baghdad’s national airport, Iran and the United States of America confirmed.

In a feared proxy war between Iran and the US on Iraqi soil, pre-dawn developments mark the biggest escalation yet.

A volley of missiles hit the Baghdad’s international airport early Friday, hitting a convoy belonging to the Hashed al-Shaabi, an Iraqi paramilitary force with close ties to Iran.

Only a few hours later, the Revolutionary Guard Corps carried a statement saying “Soleimani was martyred this morning in an attack by America on Baghdad airport this morning.”

The Hashed confirmed that both Soleimani and its deputy chief Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis were killed in the US strike.

“The deputy head of the Hashed, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, and head of the Quds Force, Qasem Soleimani, were killed in a US strike that targeted their car on the Baghdad International Airport road,” it said.

The Hashed is a network of mostly-Shiite armed units, many of whom have close ties to Tehran but which have been officially incorporated into Iraq’s state security forces.
