The released footage captured the exact moment the American drone launched an AGM-114R9X Hellfire missile, striking the vehicle carrying al-Saadi. This type of missile, known for its precision and lethality, is often used in high-stakes operations to neutralize specific targets.

Commander Abu Baqir al-Saadi was a well-known figure for his active role in Iran-backed groups in Iraq, and his death represents a significant blow to these forces in the region. The incident underscores the ongoing efforts of the United States to combat influences considered hostile in the Middle East.
