Iraq FM: External parties using Iraqi soil to attack neighbors; Baghdad investigating

Iraq's foreign minister told Al Jazeera that Baghdad is investigating attacks on Gulf states launched from Iraqi territory, acknowledging that external parties are using Iraqi soil. This marks a notable admission that could strain Iraq's relations with both Iran and Gulf states, and raises questions about Baghdad's control over its borders and airspace. The statement is unverified beyond the minister's claim, and the specific attacks and actors remain unnamed.
