U.S. drone strike kills high-ranking militia commander

A U-S drone strike has killed a high-ranking commander in an Iranian-backed militia group. Officials say the drone strike hit a car in the Iraqi capital of Baghdad, killing three members of the powerful Kataib Hezbollah militia, including a senior commander. The strike came days after the U-S military launched an air assault on dozens of sites in Iraq and Syria used by Iranian-backed militias and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard in retaliation for a deadly attack on American troops.
