US sanctions 2 Iran-linked militia leaders in Iraq

US Vice President Mike Pence says that the United States is imposing sanctions on the leaders of two Iranian-linked militia groups in Iraq.

“Let me be clear, the United States will not stand idly while Iranian-backed militias spread terror,” Pence tells a high-level meeting on religious freedom, without naming the individuals targeted.
