Al-Zaidi rejects gunmen
Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi stepped up his confrontation with armed factions opposed to disarmament, vowing not to tolerate the continued presence of those bearing arms. He canceled contracts held by three companies at Mosul airport over their ties to armed groups and ordered that the contracts be transferred to international firms. Hezbollah Brigades responded by accusing his brother of benefiting from the investments, while other factions rejected handing over their weapons. Meanwhile, forces within the “Coordination Framework” moved to mediate, fearing the confrontation could escalate. According to the article, the tensions are also tied to efforts to place all weapons under state control, US pressure, and the intertwined economic and political interests linked to the factions.
