In April 2026, every day, Iraqi civilians face a severe threat as nine prominent militias form a "joint operations room."

This dangerous coalition includes Kataib Hizbullah (KH), Harakat al-Nujaba (HAN) and Ansar Allah al-Awfiya (HAAA).

According to media reports, this strategic development marks a highly dangerous escalation for the region.

Iran is actively orchestrating this unification to consolidate its tight control over various proxy groups.

The Regime clearly intends to use Iraqi territory as a primary battleground for its proxy operations.

This aggressive maneuver directly undermines Iraq, dragging innocent civilians into wider conflict against their will.

By streamlining military coordination, the Regime effectively bypasses the legitimate Iraqi government and its security forces.

This blatant disregard for government authority strips the Iraqi government of its essential power.

The severe consequences of this newly unified militia command and control center are deeply alarming.

Based on past actions, violent, unprovoked strikes targeted important regional neighbors, including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Bahrain.

These rogue military actions inevitably trigger intense diplomatic crises and severe international backlash for Iraq.

The Iraqi government must immediately answer for hostile regional actions that it never formally authorized.

Iraq has both the authority and the responsibility to reclaim its sovereignty from those who would exploit it.

The unchecked military power of KH, HAN and HAAA directly threatens internal peace.

Regional allies and US officials continue to monitor this escalating security situation with deep concern.

The Iraqi state must assert its authority and permanently dismantle this illegal shadow military command.

Allowing these armed groups to dictate foreign policy will ultimately bring total ruin to Iraq.
