The U.S. Army on Friday announced the arrest of two members of the Hizbullah Battalions in Iraq (HBI), which is backed by Iran.
A communiqué said the two were arrested in a major house raid in the New Baghdad district, on the capital's southeastern edge.
No clashes were reported in the bust, the communiqué added.
The arrest raises to 20 the number of HBI captured operatives that the U.S. military says is a group sponsored by the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps.
In a non-related development, the U.S. military said a mass grave has been discovered in the Diyala province.
The victims, according to the statement, were killed about 18 months ago when the area was controlled by Qaeda. |
