Iraqi Armed Group Offers $10 Million Reward for Killing Trump - Shafaq News
The group cited retaliation for killings it blames on Trump and the United States, while the claim remained unverified and drew no immediate response.
- The Islamic Resistance in Iraq announced a $10 million bounty on President Donald Trump, citing his responsibility for deaths of Iranian-backed commanders in a statement distributed through affiliated channels.
- Iranian General Qasem Soleimani and Iraqi militia leader Abu Mahdi al Muhandis were killed in a January 2020 US drone strike near Baghdad International Airport, an event the group cites as justification for the bounty.
- Invoking the Quran, the statement claims "the criminal Trump will receive nothing from us except humiliation" and vows continued retaliation against those responsible for targeting slain commanders.
- White House officials and US authorities have not publicly responded to the unverified claim, though security agencies typically monitor public threats against serving or former heads of state.
- President Trump confirmed that the 23-year US military mission in Iraq will conclude by September, timing the withdrawal announcement alongside escalating Iran-backed militia threats in the region.
