WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW
After the missile attack of Iraqi and Syrian militia on US military installations in their respective countries on January 28, in which at least three US soldiers were killed, the US in retaliation attacked as many as 85 militia concentrations in Iraq and Syria
Hyderabad (NVS): After the missile attack of Iraqi and Syrian militia on US military installations in their respective countries on January 28, in which at least three US soldiers were killed, the US in retaliation attacked as many as 85 militia concentrations in Iraq and Syria. While on the one hand, America has been maintaining that it believes in peaceful co-existence with all countries in the world, on the other, it is driven to a war by the Islamic Jehadi groups not only in Iraq and Syria but also in Yemen, Lebanon, Egypt and of course Iran. Such a situation has kept peace at bay. The UN relief agencies and Red Cross have been lamenting that they are not allowed to distribute relief material to over 5 lakhs of displaced population of Gaza.
