The Iraqi Prime Minister's office stated Wednesday that only the Iraqi government has the authority to respond to attacks on the country's territory, according to Israel's Channel 12 news.
01 · THE DISPATCH
The statement from Baghdad appears to assert Iraq's sole prerogative in responding to any military strikes on its soil, amid heightened regional tensions. The brief announcement did not reference any specific incident. As The Zioneer reported on July 27, Iraq has previously stated it will not permit its territory to be used for attacks against neighboring countries.
