New Delhi, May 16 -- The US Department of Justice (DOJ) on Friday (local time) announced the arrest of a terrorist commander who was accused of planning three attacks across the country. He was indicted on terrorism charges on Wednesday.

In a release, the DOJ identified the man as Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, an Iraqi national and senior member of Kata'ib Hizballah, a US-designated foreign terrorist organization (FTO).

He has worked closely with Qasem Soleimani, the longtime commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps Qods Force (IRGC-QF), who was killed during a US airstrike in 2020. He also worked with Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, who was the leader of Kata'ib Hizballah until he was killed in the same airstrike as Soleimani....
