Iranian-American agreement to keep Iraq away from Middle East events
The Israeli newspaper, The Jerusalem Post, revealed on Wednesday that there is an Iranian-American agreement to keep Iraq away from the current conflict, noting that the Iraqi Prime Minister intervened to prevent the American response to the recent bombing of Ain al-Assad.
The newspaper said in a report, which was followed by Al-Mutalaa, that: “There is news circulating in intelligence circles about instructions reaching armed factions inside Iraq to stop attacks against American forces and their bases to prevent the country from sliding into open war,” indicating that: “The Iranian authorities decided to stop attacks against American bases in Iraq as a result of the escalation of tension to unprecedented levels and the increasing risk of Iraq turning into a war zone.”
She added that: "Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani was able to convince the Americans not to respond to the recent targeting of Ain al-Assad base and to cancel any plans to target armed factions inside the country," stressing to the Americans that: "Iraq is committed to maintaining its security and preventing its lands from turning into a battlefield between the American and Iranian parties."
The newspaper pointed out that: "The Iranian instructions do not include any mention of the attacks carried out by the factions inside Iraq against Israeli targets, including the continuous bombing of the port of Eilat," explaining that: "The cessation of attacks is limited so far to American bases and interests only, according to its description." link
