Unconfirmed reports are circulating that an American logistics convoy was targeted on the road between Samawah and Diwaniyah, south of #Baghdad, #Iraq. These convoys are usually manned and run by local contractors and not US Forces.

The event reportedly happened within the last hour. First reports appeared on pro-#IRGC and #PMU media accounts in the last 30 minutes from what I can find.

Pro-#PMU media outlet Sabreen News have released a video of the convoy that was attacked.

Additional imagery starting to come out from the attack.

Latest image was via Al Nujaba militant media.

Looks like some form of M1083 FMTV.

Despite multiple reports of the new Saraya Thawrat al-Eshreen al-Thaniya militant group taking responsibility for the attack there is nothing official.

Additional video from the targeted convoy. No confirmed information on injuries etc.

According to reports armed men stopped the #Iraq|i driver in the convoy, told them to get out and leave before burning the vehicles.
