ANKARA (AA) – Iran said Saturday that the Iraqi government has vowed to disarm and expel terrorist groups from its territories.
Iran is "waiting for the Iraqi government to live up to its commitment and we have given them a chance," Gen. Mohammad Pakpour, commander of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) ground forces, said in statements carried by the semi-official Tasnim news agency.
"Otherwise, if nothing happens, the IRGC attacks will continue," he added.
There was no comment from the Iraqi authorities on the report.
In November 2022, the IRGC launched missile and drone attacks against positions of armed Kurdish groups stationed in northern Iraq.
Iran classifies both the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (IKDP) and the Komala Party as terrorist groups.
