Iraqi factions ask for separate weapon storage
An Iraqi government source revealed that armed factions expressing their desire to join official institutions, such as Popular Mobilization Forces (Hashd al-Shaabi), have stipulated that they retain their weapons in separate warehouses and not merge them with security agencies' weaponry. This is due to the lack of official guarantees and the absence of a timetable for the US withdrawal from Iraq by the end of the year. Additionally, this issue requires the enactment of a law to regulate the integration process. Some factions, particularly Hezbollah Brigades, have expressed reservations, insisting on refusing to hand over their weapons and preferring to purchase arms instead of surrendering them.
