Iraqi Sources Clarify Hashd HQ Closure
The article focused on the Iraqi government's efforts, led by Prime Minister Ali Al-Zeidi, to restrict weapon ownership to the state and to shut down illegal headquarters belonging to Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) that were used by outlawed armed groups. Seventy-one fake headquarters were closed, and a database has been established containing six million weapons across Iraq. Additionally, the spread of armed gangs coercing families and claiming affiliation with the PMF was revealed; however, these groups are not officially associated with it. They often operate by wearing military uniforms and carrying weapons, and are affiliated with political parties within the parliament. These measures are part of a disarmament plan aimed at eliminating the phenomenon of unlicensed weaponry and achieving security stability. It was announced that authorities will take legal action against those impersonating PMF members or unlawfully using its symbols, with expectations that some armed factions will voluntarily hand over their weapons under official supervision.
