Shafaq News / Major General Ali Abdul-Hussein Al-Majidi was appointed as the head of the Basra Operations Command, a security source reported.
Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi removed the former head of the command, Akram Saddam, yesterday, after armed factions attacked a security force coming from Baghdad.
Al-Kadhimi blamed Saddam for his inability to "protect" the security forces, according to the sources.
