Iraqi fears increase with the upcoming anniversary of the first anniversary of the assassination of former deputy head of the People’s Mobilization Authority, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, and former commander of the Iranian Quds Force, Qassem Soleimani.
On the night of January 3, 2020, the US drone killed the engineer and Soleimani as they were leaving the Baghdad international airport, after the deputy head of the Hashd Committee received his friend, the commander of the Iranian Quds Force, who was coming from Damascus. .
With the approach of memory and the escalation of the threat of Iraqi factions close to Iran to “get revenge”, Iraqi fears of military actions that affect them or affect Iraqi governmental institutions increase.
Amid these fears, the government of Mustafa Al-Kazemi seeks to “distance Iraq from this confrontation and calm the situation between Tehran and Washington,” according to an Iraqi government source.
The source told RT, “Al-Kazemi communicated with the Iranians and the Americans, and even the armed factions in Iraq, and tried to prevent any attack that affected American interests with the memory of the assassination of Soleimani and the engineer.” .
Al-Kazemi’s movements came after growing threats from armed factions, especially the “Hezbollah Brigades” and the “Asa’ib Ahl al-Haq” movement, whose Secretary General Qais Khazali said two days ago that “the revenge for Soleimani and the engineer is on our necks. “
