Elizabeth Tsurkov, the Israeli researcher who was kidnapped in Baghdad in March 2023, responded to the U.S. State Department's announcement that the United States will offer $10 million for information on Ahmad al-Hamidawi, leader of the 'Kata'ib Hezbollah' militia in Iraq, who was responsible for her abduction. Tsurkov wrote on X that 'this man is responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent Sunni Iraqis and Syrians. He always covered his face with a mask when appearing in public, and usually with sunglasses as well. Apparently that didn't work.'
