The Iraqi resistance movement has warned the United States against using Iraq’s air space to invade Iran saying that the group’s response will have no limits in case of any US attack.
The Iraqi Resistance Coordination Committee issued the warning in a statement on Monday.
“As the forces of arrogance continue their brutal and treacherous attacks against nations and their Resistance combatants, they persist in their support and protection of the security of the Zionist entity at the expense of the security of the region, without regard for the sovereignty of Iraq or the nations rejecting their criminal policies,” the Iraqi Resistance statement said.
“The Iraqi Resistance Coordination Committee is not bound by any restrictions. If the American occupation forces once again target our sons in Iraq or exploit its airspace to carry out attacks against the Islamic Republic of Iran, our response will have no limits,” the statement added.
The Iraqi groups have been pressing for an end to the presence of foreign forces in Iraq for more than a decade after a US-led coalition invaded the country in blatant violation of international law based on false claims of it owning weapons of mass destruction.
In 2020, the Iraqi parliament voted in favor of the expulsion of the foreign forces after a US drone strike assassinated Iran's top anti-terror commander General Qassem Soleimani, and the PMU’s deputy commander Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis outside Baghdad International Airport.
