 US Issues ‘Final Warning’ To Baghdad Over Iraqi Resistance Factions

The country’s defense minister says Washington informed him of upcoming US operations ‘near Iraq’

The US has issued its “final” and “most serious” warning to Iraq regarding the Iran-linked resistance factions in the country, according to Iraqi Defense Minister Thabit al-Abbasi.

Abbasi said in an interview over the weekend that Washington’s latest message “concerns armed factions and includes a direct threat in the event that those factions carry out any operations in response to what Washington intends to do in the region near Iraq in the coming days.”

No further details were provided on what exactly these US operations would entail. The minister said the message was relayed during a call with US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.

Hegseth ended the call by saying “This is your final warning… and you know very well how the current administration will respond,” Abbasi went on to say.

The Iraqi minister said the conversation, which lasted about 12 minutes and included senior Iraqi military officials, also touched on cooperation regarding drones, a proposed intelligence-sharing memorandum, and a pending deal for Bell helicopters.
