The Popular Mobilisation Forces (PMF), an umbrella organization for various Iraqi paramilitary groups, has reported that several of its headquarters have been targeted in recent attacks. In northern Iraq’s Nineveh province, the PMF stated that joint strikes, which they attributed to Saudi and U.S. forces, resulted in eight fatalities and significant damage to their facilities. The organization described these actions as a "highly dangerous escalation" and a direct breach of Iraq’s national sovereignty.

Separately, reports have emerged of explosions occurring at a PMF headquarters in the southern province of Basra. Unlike the reports from Nineveh, the cause of the Basra blasts remains unconfirmed, and there is currently no official information regarding casualties or the origin of the explosions in that specific location.

While the PMF has publicly blamed Saudi and U.S. forces for the strikes in the north, there has been no immediate confirmation or comment from those governments regarding the allegations. The PMF serves as a state-sanctioned umbrella organization that oversees numerous paramilitary factions, some of which maintain close ties to Iran. The discrepancy between the confirmed reports of casualties in the north and the unverified nature of the Basra explosions highlights the ongoing volatility surrounding these facilities.
