Sabah al-Akili told Iraq’s al-Maloumeh news website on Sunday that the move is aimed at infiltrating and targeting the PMU positions and sabotaging power transmission lines.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    “The strategic military goal of the US forces is to cause division in Jurf al-Sakhar in order to create a threat to nearby provinces and to invent a pretext for American forces to stay in Iraq,” he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Al-Akili argued that the move also provides a justification for the Iraqi government to ask the US troops to remain in the Arab country.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

    “Foreign and [Iraqi] political parties, backed by the US, are doing their utmost to drive the Hashd al-Sha'abi (PMU) forces out of Jurf al-Sakhar, which connects the provinces of Babil, al-Anbar and Baghdad via the holy [city of] Karbala,” he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The remarks came a day after the PMU announced its forces had thwarted an attack launched by the remnants of Daesh on Jurf al-Sakhar.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

The PMU’s communication office said in a statement that the attack was repelled by the Al-Jazirah Operation Headquarters Command.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Jurf al-Sakhar was liberated from Daesh terrorists in 2014 in Operation Ashura, which was led by Iran’s top anti-terror commander Lieutenant General Qassem Soleimani, who was killed by the US military in January 2020, in an assassination lauded by Daesh.
