Following Jordan's warning earlier Saturday, Syria has conveyed a message to Baghdad warning that any attack launched from Iraqi territory against Syria will not remain unanswered, an Iraqi political source told Al-Arabiya.
An Iraqi political source told Al-Arabiya that Syria has conveyed a warning to Baghdad, mirroring Jordan's earlier message. The Syrian warning states that any attack launched from Iraqi territory against Syria will not go unanswered. The development comes as multiple neighboring states press Iraq to prevent its territory from being used for cross-border attacks. As The Zioneer reported earlier Saturday, Jordan warned Iraq that it would strike Iranian-backed militias if the kingdom is attacked, and shared intelligence on militia attack plans. The Syrian warning is based on a single anonymous source and has not been independently confirmed.
