#IRAQ | Pro Shi'a and Iranian-backed Iraqi groups such as Kataib Hezbollah, Asaib Ahl al Haq, Harakat al Nujaba, the Badr Organization, Sayyid al Shuhada Brigades, Jund al Imam, the Khorasani Brigades, and other PMF factions mobilized in the streets carrying AnsarAllah banners and images of Yemen’s Abdulmalik al Houthi even after the Iraqi government announced it would retract the terror designation mistakenly applied to the Houthi movement. The listing had appeared on the Justice Ministry’s official gazette website on November 17 alongside groups such as Lebanese Hezbollah, all accused of involvement in terrorist acts. Iraqi officials said the reversal followed heavy pressure from Iran aligned political blocs and armed groups who warned that labeling the Houthis and Hezbollah as terrorist organizations would harm Baghdad’s relationship with Tehran. Public criticism also grew since many Iraqis see the Houthis as part of a broader resistance front supporting Palestinians. Prime Minister @mohamedshiai ordered an investigation into how the error occurred, and the government confirmed that the Houthis will be removed in the corrected publication. A key reason these Iraqi factions rallied so forcefully for Hezbollah and AnsarAllah is that they themselves feel pressure from the President Donald J. Trump Donald J. Trump administration’s push, supported by Israel and other anti Iran regional players, to weaken or dismantle the PMF and replace militia structures with a unified professional army and police force. By mobilizing in large numbers, they were also signaling to Baghdad that they retain the ability to rapidly bring supporters into the streets, effectively warning that if they can turn out this kind of force for Hezbollah and AnsarAllah, they could respond even more strongly if the government moves to sanction or diminish them. Another notable aspect is how prominently Abdulmalik al Houthi now appears in imagery displayed alongside figures such as Iran’s Supreme Leader and slain Iranian or pro Iran commanders, reflecting how dramatically the events since October 7 have elevated the status of the Houthi leadership and reshaped regional perceptions.

#BREAKING news: Soft Coup Unfolding in Iraq — Full Takeover Feared Within Days; Goal Is to Open New War Front Against Israel Emerging from IRAQ March 17, 2026 Multiple field reports and intelligence leaks indicate that Iran-backed armed factions have begun what Kurd alarm reporters describe as a coordinated “soft coup” against state authority in Iraq. Their goal is to take over the country within the next few days and open a new war front against the United States and Israel from Iraq. Iran-backed Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) are accusing the government of Iraq of failing to officially declare war against the United States. According to sources, forces from the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) have ordered Iraqi Army and police units to withdraw from key positions particularly along the western and Syrian borders, which are now fully under the control of Popular Mobilization Forces units. They will begin firing missiles from the Sinjar Mountains directly toward the heart of Tel Aviv, and they will open a new war front against Israel and America from Iraq. Video footage appears to confirm a complete withdrawal of Iraqi security forces from Al-Qaim in Anbar Province, with Iran-backed PMF units moving in and taking control. Escalation signals are as follows: Armed factions are accusing the Iraqi government of weakness and of not doing enough in the fight against the United States and Israel. Calls are emerging to confront U.S. Armed Forces and move toward Israel to support Hezbollah, which could lead to a new war front starting from Iraq and spreading across the wider region. There are growing warnings that this situation could rapidly shift from a “soft” coup to a full-scale takeover. A Kurdish reporter has warned the Kurdistan Regional Government to prepare for the worst-case scenario. If this soft coup escalates into a hard coup and a complete takeover, attacks on the Kurdistan Region could increase. These factions have vowed to eliminate U.S. forces in Kurdistan, and there is a possibility they may attempt to take control of the region as well. While official confirmation is still absent, multiple intelligence sources warn that control of state institutions may already be slipping, with the next few days likely to be decisive.
