The Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades, an Iran-aligned militia, stated that if war breaks out again in Iran, the group and other resistance forces will participate immediately and unequivocally, according to the group's own statement.
The Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades (Kata'ib Hezbollah), an Iran-aligned militia operating in Iraq, issued a statement Wednesday morning declaring that if war breaks out again in Iran, the group and other resistance forces would participate 'immediately and unequivocally.' The statement, circulated via the group's channels, does not specify a trigger or provide further details.
The Zioneer has previously reported on the group's posture. In early June, the brigades threatened to attack US bases in Iraq and the region should Washington intervene in the regional confrontation. The group has also been active in supporting Iranian interests, with members reportedly present at a gathering in Qom, Iran, in July.
The new statement signals the Iraqi Hezbollah Brigades' readiness to escalate in support of Iran, though it remains a declaration of intent rather than a confirmed operational move. No independent verification of the group's capacity to act on such a threat is available at this time.
