Justice Department Indicts Dual Iranian-Iraqi National for Terrorism Support
The U.S. Department of Justice has announced an eight-count indictment against Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, a dual Iranian-Iraqi national, for his involvement in terrorism-related activities. Al-Saadi is accused of being an operative for Kata'ib Hizballah and Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), both designated as foreign terrorist organizations by the U.S. The indictment alleges that Al-Saadi participated in nearly 20 attacks and attempted attacks across Europe and the United States, targeting U.S. and Israeli interests. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche emphasized Al-Saadi's role in planning and executing these attacks, which included attempts to target civilians in the U.S. Al-Saadi was detained abroad and transferred to U.S. custody, where he waived his Miranda rights and admitted to his leadership role in the 'resistance,' encompassing the IRGC and its proxies.
