Iraq's efforts to restore prestige and curb Iran
The Iraqi government is working on an security plan to dismantle the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) in phases, following an ultimate deadline set for September 30 to hand over weapons to the state. The plan emphasizes reducing the influence of armed factions loyal to Tehran. This effort comes as Iraq seeks to regain its security sovereignty, coinciding with international pressure—particularly from the United States—to dismantle these militias and restructure the security landscape. The plan includes seizing heavy and medium weapons, removing leaders involved in attacks against international interests, and integrating the militia into state institutions to reinforce its authority.
