Iraqi group warns of PMF attacks
The Iraqi government reaffirmed its commitment to implementing its program to restrict weapons to the state’s control, amid initiatives from some armed factions to cooperate and hand over their weapons. Meanwhile, other factions rejected this approach, viewing it as an attack on "the weapons of the resistance." Authorities emphasized that Iraq’s sovereignty and security require that control over weapons remain exclusively in the hands of official institutions. These statements come amid efforts to integrate armed factions into the official security system, although some factions oppose this, considering it an attack on their resistance. The government’s steps received support from certain religious and political leaders, who stressed that the issue of arms is a sovereign matter that should be managed solely by the state.
