Shafaq News/ The US Associated Press announced on Tuesday the killing of al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri during a US drone strike in Afghanistan.

The agency said, quoting a source, that the US bombing was carried out in Afghanistan over the weekend.

For its part, the Afghan government said that the United States carried out a raid on a house in Kabul in clear violation of international principles and the Doha agreement.

Jarrah al-Ayun, who helped found the Egyptian Jihad, took over the leadership of al-Qaeda following the killing of bin Laden at the hands of US forces on May 2, 2011.

Before that, Al-Zawahiri was seen as bin Laden’s right-hand man and the main ideologue of Al-Qaeda.

Some experts believe that he was one of the main elements behind the attacks of September 11, 2001, as his name was at the time second to bin Laden in a list of 22 “most wanted terrorists” of the United States.

The US government has allocated a reward of $ 25 million for anyone who helps access it.

Shafaq News/ On Monday, the Iraqi Prime Minister, Mustafa Al-Kazemi, called on all political forces for a national dialogue by forming a committee that includes their representatives to sit at the dialogue table and draw up a “road map for the solution.”

Al-Kazemi said in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, “Iraq is witnessing a great political tension that threatens if wise people do not interfere with dire consequences,” adding: “While we have taken all necessary measures and measures to control the situation, maintain security, and prevent the waste of Iraqi blood, we call on all parties To calm, reduce escalation, to start an initiative for a solution on national bases.

The Prime Minister called on everyone “not to be drawn into accusations, the language of treason, and to set up hostility and hatred between the Brotherhood in the same country, and to sit at a national dialogue table to reach a political solution to the current crisis, under the roof of Iraqi synergy and the mechanisms of national dialogue.”

Al-Kazemi addressed the demonstrators, saying, “Your message is clear, and your commitment to calm and organization is a duty and appreciated, and it is now time to discuss the mechanisms for launching a reform project agreed upon by the various national parties, and I am sure that in Iraq there is enough rationality and courage to move forward with a project.” My country is getting the country out of its current crisis.”

He called on the political forces to “assume their national and legal responsibility,” noting that “the caretaker government carried out all its duties despite exceeding the time limit set by the constitutional timings to form a new government, which is a constitutional violation.”

Al-Kazemi continued: “With all that, we were and are still ready to provide all assistance to reach a solution formula that is satisfactory to all, and in a manner that preserves social peace, the stability of state institutions and the interests of the people.”

Al-Kazemi returned to call on the demonstrators: “The protesting brothers must cooperate with the security forces, respect state institutions, evacuate them and abide by public order,” at the same time, directing the security forces to “defend public and private properties, and official institutions, and prevent any attack on them by all legal means.” “.

On Monday afternoon, the capital, Baghdad, witnessed a demonstration by the audience of the coordination framework, which includes a group of Shiite parties near the suspension bridge leading to the Green Zone, after an invitation from the “Organizing Committee to Support Legitimacy and Preserve State Institutions”, which came in response to the open sit-in of supporters of the Sadrist movement in Parliament and Sadr’s call to change the political system.

The Iraqi street is awaiting what will happen to the situation in the capital, Baghdad, after counter calls from the leader of the Sadrist movement on the one hand, and the forces of the Shiite coordination framework on the other hand, to demonstrate in front of and inside the green walls.

The dispute is intensifying between the Sadrists, who are holding a sit-in at the Iraqi parliament’s headquarters in the Green Zone, and the coordination framework that called on its supporters to demonstrate near it.

Yesterday, large numbers of supporters of the Sadrist movement, Muqtada al-Sadr, stormed the Iraqi parliament building, in the second incursion within days, and announced an open sit-in until those they described as “corrupt” were expelled.

Supporters of the Coordination Framework demonstrated in Baghdad today, Monday, and tried to storm the Green Zone before the law enforcement forces confronted them, only to withdraw later.

Despite Al-Khazali’s calls, Coordination Framework supporters clash with security forces near the Green Zone

Shafaq News/ Supporters of the Coordination Framework breached a barrier the security forces established on the suspension bridge that leads to the Green Zone in an attempt to storm the ultra-secure territory that houses government buildings and foreign embassies downtown the Iraqi capital.

Shafaq News Agency correspondent said that the law enforcement used water cannons to hinder the demonstrators from moving forward.

The leader of the Asa’ib Ahl al-Haq movement, Qais al-Khazali, urged the Coordination Framework’s supporters to avoid skirmishes with the security forces and stay outside the Green Zone.

Iraqi security forces are on high alert in Baghdad on Monday as tensions soared after the rivals of the Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr, whose supporters are occupying the parliament, called for counter-demonstrations.

A political standoff 10 months after Iraqis went to the polls pits al-Sadr, a populist leader with millions of devoted followers among the country’s majority Shiite population, against the powerful pro-Iran Coordination Framework, another Shiite alliance.

Al-Sadr’s supporters have been occupying parliament in the normally high-security Green Zone since Saturday.

They started their protest in response to the rival alliance’s prime ministerial nomination.

Large numbers of security forces set up roadblocks and checkpoints, ahead of calls by supporters of the Coordination Framework around 5:00 pm (Iraq time). 

The protest is expected to take place on a road leading to the Green Zone, not far from where thousands of al-Sadr supporters were still bedded down at the parliament, waving flags and pictures of the firebrand former militia commander.

A Sadr loyalist has also called on supporters of the cleric to protest across Iraq’s governorates, in demonstrations to take place at the same time.

Hadi al-Ameri, who heads the Iran-backed al-Fatah bloc, repeated a call on Monday for “constructive dialogue enabling solutions to be found to points of contention”.

The Sadrist movement demands Al-Amiri withdraw from the framework: Prevent treachery, there is no dialogue with those who threaten to kill

Shafaq News/ Ahmed Al-Mutairi, head of the political body of the Sadrist movement, called on Monday, Hadi Al-Amiri, head of the “Al-Fateh” coalition, to formally withdraw from the coordination framework.

Today, Monday, Hadi al-Amiri, head of the Al-Fateh Alliance, issued a new call to the Sadrist movement and the coordination framework for “restraint”, warning that mass mobilization may get out of control and lead to violence.

Al-Mutairi said in a statement, “I understand through your statement that you are not part of the framework, knowing that you are the pole of the mill in it and as long as you demanded for them and were not satisfied with the entry of part of them with the current in the formation of the government previously.”

He added, “Your speech should be for the framework and not for the movement. We are not the ones who ask for blood or sedition. Hear the speeches of your allies in the framework. Either you announce your withdrawal from them, or you are still with them in the framework of the strife they want. We and our leadership think well of you, but (killing people is half solutions) And how do you ask us to have a dialogue with someone who threatens a national leader, a political leader, a master, a descendant, and an heir to Al-Sadr’s approach? How do you accept that we engage in dialogue with someone who threatens to kill him?

The statement continued, “All of you, without exception, know that Mr. Al-Maliki spoke this speech over and over again, and we are certain that it was not fabricated. His Eminence, Muqtada Al-Sadr, asked you to condemn this leak, but you did not condemn it and did not respect the sanctity of God in the rest of Al-Sadr.”

Al-Mutairi said, “Oh, the good Beloved: We need actions, not words, so order, do, and prevent the manifestation of treachery – the era – for they sought in it sedition and sedition is more severe than killing if they knew.”

In response to Al-Amiri’s words, Al-Sadr Minister Saleh Muhammad Al-Iraqi set, on Monday, 3 conditions for accepting the invitation of the head of the Al-Fateh Alliance Hadi Al-Amiri for dialogue between the Sadrist movement and the coordination framework.

Al-Iraqi said in a tweet seen by Shafak News Agency, “The brother Al-Amiri’s call for dialogue between the framework (to which he belongs) and the Sadrist movement, which he abandoned, is repeated. Spyder Man) which he stated in the leaks a few days ago.

He added, “You were among the signatories to a reform document… it was not implemented… who is the guarantor of the implementation of reform dialogue?!
