Will Al-Zaydi secure weapon control
The article focused on the Iraqi government's efforts to control illegal weapons through a plan to restrict arms to the state’s hands. This includes registering and confiscating millions of weapons and explosives by the deadline of September 30, 2023. Official figures show that security agencies have registered over 20,000 personal firearms, 16,616 pieces of equipment, 325 rockets, and 1,072 explosive materials, alongside extensive confiscation operations. This reflects the government's desire to limit illegal arming. The Prime Minister faces political and security challenges from armed factions and internal political forces. The upcoming phase requires internal dialogue and legal commitments, with warnings about the dangers of conflict and the need for factions to reject arms outside of state control. Experts believe that the success of this initiative depends on both internal and external cooperation, emphasizing that legal options should remain a potential solution to avoid armed confrontations.
