London, Jul. 20 – Coalition Forces captured a suspected terrorist with “close ties to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps-Qods Force (IRGC-QF)” in a raid on Thursday in Kharnabat near the Iraqi town of Baqubah, the U.S. military said on Friday.

“The captured terrorist is suspected of facilitating the transport of weapons and personnel from Iran into Iraq. The captured terrorist is also believed to have facilitated the flow of deadly Explosively Formed Projectiles (EFPs) into Iraq from Iran to be used against Coalition Forces”, the Multi-National Force – Iraq (MNF-I) said in a statement.

No shots were fired when Coalition Forces conducted the raid to “capture or kill a highly-sought operative with connections to senior leaders of the IRGC-QF”.

Coalition Forces confiscated a large sum of U.S. currency, weapons and photographs of juveniles with weapons during the raid, the statement said.
