Iraqi TV and three Iraqi officials said Friday that Gen. Qassim Soleimani, the head of Irans elite Quds Force, has been killed in an airstrike at Baghdads international airport.
The officials said the strike also killed Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the deputy commander of Iran-backed militias known as the Popular Mobilization Forces.
Their deaths are a potential turning point in the Middle East and are expected to draw severe retaliation from Iran and the forces it backs in the Middle East against Israel and American interests.
The PMF blamed the United States for an attack at Baghdad International Airport Friday.
There was no immediate comment from the U.S. or Iran.

RE: Whats some Iranian general doing in Iran if not stirring up trouble?
He is listed by the United States as a known terrorist, which forbids U.S. citizens from doing business with him.
The list, published in the EU’s Official Journal on 24 June 2011, also includes a Syrian property firm, an investment fund and two other enterprises accused of funding Assad’s government. The list also includes Mohammad Ali Jafari and Hossein Taeb.
