Iranian official warns of imminent attacks on Iraq, urges vigilance

A senior Iranian figure has warned of imminent attacks in Iraq following Assad’s fall, urged vigilance to protect regional stability, and accused Western powers of exploiting and weakening other nations.

“Terrorists are currently preparing to launch attacks on Iraq,” Mohsen Rezaei, a former IRGC chief commander, said Tuesday. “Any reduction in regional security will inflict irreparable damage on countries, so everyone must remain vigilant. The United States and its accomplices seek to weaken nations and plunder their wealth."

“We must learn from history,” he continued. “History has shown that the West shows no mercy even to its own proxies, and that plundering other countries’ resources is one of its main priorities.”
