The US-led coalition has accidentally bombed members of the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Units (PMU) near the ISIS-held city of Tal Afar in northern Iraq, according to the ISIS-linked news agency Amaq.
According to the report, some 38 PMU fighters were killed as a result of the US-led coalition airstrikes near Kerkari village in the Tal Afar countryside.
If confirmed, this will be the recent in a series of incidents involving the US-led coalition and the PMU in Iraq. Earlier this year, the PMU claimed that the US-led coalition carried out military strikes on its fighters near the Syrian-Iraqi border.
