Good evening, 

Here's a quick round-up of the day's events as the region continues to grapple with the fall out of Qassem Soleimani's assassination. 

1) Iraq's parliament passed a non-binding resolution calling on US troops to leave the country. The parliament's calls were backed by the Iraqi Prime Minister. No timetable was given for when US troops to leave or whether that included all US army personnel. 

2) The Iranian Supreme Leader's military adviser, Hossein Dehghan, told CNN that Iran's response to Soleimani's killing will be against US military sites. 

3) Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah and Iraqi cleric Muqtada al-Sadr both called on US army sites to be targeted in response to Soleimani's assassination.

4) Thousands have gathered in the city of Ahvaz as part of a funeral procession to mark Soleimani's death before his burial on Tuesday.
