BAGHDAD (Dispatches) – Iraqi media sources reported Sunday that a third U.S. Army logistics convoy was targeted on a single day in Diwaniyah province.
The Sabereen News reported no group has claimed responsibility for the attack yet.
This was the third U.S. military convoy targeted in Iraq on Sunday. Earlier in the day, a U.S. military logistics convoy was targeted in the Samawah, the capital of the Muthanna province by roadside bombs. Minutes later, Sabereen news reported that a second U.S. logistics convoy had been targeted on the road between Samawah and Diwaniyah.
Following the Iraqi parliament’s decision to expel foreign troops from the country and the government’s delay in complying with the legislation since 2020, U.S. coalition logistics convoys have repeatedly been targeted by roadside bombs, sometimes several times a week or in a single day.
