Iranian commander killed by drone strike in Syria-Iraq border, reports say - Haaretz.com

A senior commander in Iran’s Revolutionary Guards was killed Sunday in a drone strike along the Syria-Iraq border, several Arab media outlets reported, citing Iraqi officials.

According to the reports, three more people were killed alongside the commander, identified as Muslim Shahdan.

Al Arabiya, quoting Iraqi intelligence sources, reported Shahdan's car was targeted after he crossed the al-Qa'im border crossing into Syria.

Hezbollah-affiliated Lebanese network Al-Mayadeen, however, denied the reports, quoting reliable sources.
