Briefing: Are Iran-allied paramilitaries dragging Iraq into the war?
Strategic angle: After a large convoy of Iraqis crossed into Iran this week, observers worried they would join Iran's war effort against the US and Israel. But, experts say, Iraq's situation is way more complicated than that.
A large convoy of Iraqi paramilitaries has reportedly crossed into Iran, prompting fears of their participation in Iran's military efforts against the US and Israel.
Experts indicate that Iraq's geopolitical landscape is complex, with various factions and interests at play, complicating the narrative of straightforward alignment with Iran.
The implications of these movements on regional stability and infrastructure are significant, as they could affect operational capacities and strategic alignments within Iraq and beyond.
