The leader of the Sadrist Movement in Iraq, Muqtada al-Sadr, announced the disbandment of the "Saraya al-Salam" formations affiliated with him and their full integration into state institutions, aiming to keep weapons under government control and strengthen internal stability. This move was part of his 2021 reform plan, which seeks to dismantle armed factions and establish a civil state. He called on the leaders to complete the separation process within a week. Although there was an announcement of the intention to hand over weapons and convert the factions into religious or relief organizations, doubts remain about the absence of a clear mechanism for transferring or destroying the weapons, raising concerns that the step might be a political maneuver. Meanwhile, other factions, such as the "Asa'ib Ahl al-Haq" movement, expressed their commitment to weapon restriction in exchange for remaining in power, although the future of the weapons and factions remains heavily linked to regional and international tensions.
