Iraq: Anti-Iran terrorist groups transferred to remote locations

Iraq's National Security Advisor announced the redeployment of anti-Iranian terrorist groups from their bases in Iraqi Kurdistan to more remote areas. According to the Iraq-24 news site, Qasim al-Arji stressed that all anti-Iranian terrorist groups have been evacuated from their bases in Iraqi Kurdistan, and border troops and Kurdish Peshmerga detachments have been deployed to protect these areas. According to him, terrorists from 60 countries are based in the Al-Hol camp in Syria, most of them from Iraq and Syria, and about 10 thousand foreign terrorists are also present in the camp. The presence of terrorist groups in Iraqi Kurdistan, near the borders of Iran, due to their repeated threats against Iran, has always caused strong protests from the Islamic Republic, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has attacked the bases of these groups several times. Finally, Tehran and Baghdad reached a security agreement providing for the elimination of the base of terrorist groups in Iraqi Kurdistan. According to the security agreement of March 19, 2023, all terrorist and separatist groups supported by the Zionist regime and the United States and based in Iraqi Kurdistan must be brought under the control of the central government of Iraq and withdrawn from the border areas.
