BAGHDAD, March 24 (Xinhua) -- A U.S. airstrike killed 15 members of Iraq's paramilitary Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), including a senior commander in the western province of Anbar early Tuesday, a security source told Xinhua.
The PMF said in a statement that the attack was a "flagrant violation of Iraqi sovereignty," stressing that the action shows no respect for international law or humanitarian norms.
It also urged Iraq's political forces to adopt a clear and firm position to preserve the country's sovereignty and put an end to these serious violations. ■
