Al-Sudani rejects targeting foreign forces in Iraq and directs to take measuresShafaq News/ The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Prime Minister Muhammad Shiaa Al-Sudani, announced on Monday his refusal to target foreign forces in Iraq, and directed the security services to carry out their duties, implement the law, and track and trace the elements carrying out those attacks.

The spokesman for the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Major General Yahya Rasoul, said in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, “At a time when the Iraqi government has expressed, on several occasions, its condemnation of the Zionist aggression against the residents of the Gaza Strip, and repeated its calls to end the tragic conditions that our Palestinian brothers are suffering as a result of that aggression.” Which represents the firm, principled position towards the struggle of the Palestinian people. We also affirm our rejection of the attacks targeting the Iraqi bases, which include the headquarters of the international coalition advisors present in Iraq, at an official invitation from the government, to continue their work in supporting the work of our security forces in terms of training, qualification and consultation. According to a clear mechanism that was established by the Iraqi official and diplomatic channels, the security and safety of these headquarters cannot be compromised.”

The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces directed all security services to carry out their duties, implement the law, track and trace the elements carrying out these attacks, and not allow, under any circumstances, to harm the security and stability that were achieved thanks to the great sacrifices of the members of our armed forces, in their various types and formations.

The Ain al-Assad base in Anbar and Harir in Erbil were bombed by drones more than once, claimed by armed factions calling themselves the “Islamic Resistance in Iraq.”
