JAKARTA - The Iraqi government has given a deadline of September 30, 2026 for pro-Iranian groups in its territory to disarm.
This was announced by an Iraqi government spokesman on Monday, June 29, quoted by AFP.
The announcement was also made ahead of the planned visit of Iraq's new Prime Minister (PM), Ali Al-Zaidi, to the United States (US).
The visit comes amid pressure from Washington on Baghdad to ensure the pro-Iranian factions or groups hand over weapons.
A number of these groups have been listed during the US-Israeli war against Iran since February 28, 2026 targeting US facilities in Iraq.
