Government reviews closing Houthi offices in Iraq
Iraqi sources have reported that the Iraqi government is considering closing the offices of the Houthi movement located within Iraq, amid American and Saudi pressures to prevent the use of Iraqi territory to launch attacks on neighboring countries. These Houthi offices are mainly spread across Baghdad and the provinces controlled by the Coordination Framework factions, where they collect donations from visitors for religious sites under the pretext of supporting resistance efforts in Yemen and Iraq. There are suspicions about the fate of these funds. It is also believed that both the Houthis and Iraqi factions supported by Iran are using the money to purchase weapons and drones. This activity is said to have begun approximately four years ago during the government of Muhammad Shia’ al-Sudani. Sources confirm that the government is restricting media personnel from discussing the presence of factions affiliated with the Houthis, and that the closure of some offices may be superficial, with the possibility of new offices emerging in the future amidst ongoing American and Saudi pressure and condemnation from the Gulf Cooperation Council. The government spokesperson denies the existence of Houthi offices in Iraq, affirming that Iraq will not become a platform for attacking neighboring countries.
