Iran-linked militia in Iraq threatens Saudi Arabia as Iraqi PM visits Tehran
Kataib Hezbollah are calling for more attacks on Saudi Arabia amid wrangling over who should protect the country’s borders.
ERBIL, Iraqi Kurdistan — As Iran warns of a possible cross-border ground operation into Iraqi Kurdistan, an armed faction operating within Iraq has called for Iran-linked armed groups across the region to take the fight to the Saudi capital.
As reported by local media outlets, Kataib Hezbollah issued a statement this week saying, “The optimal solution to deal with the Saudi entity is to establish an alliance from the countries affected by its criminal deeds to transfer the conflicts into the streets of Riyadh.”
