Hashd Shaabi, Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF/PMU)
An Iraqi Shi'ite Muslim fighter from the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), also known as Hashd al-Shaabi, prays as smoke rises from positions held by ISIS militants during the battle to liberate Tal Afar in western Mosul on November 18, 2016. The Popular Mobilization Forces, which are Iran-aligned militias in Iraq, have been involved in regional tensions and have come under several airstrikes during military operations by the United States and Israel against the Islamic Republic.
