Kata’ib Hezbollah statement on recent developments in Iraq

Kata’ib Hezbollah stated the election of Mustafa al-Kadhimi as Iraq’s prime minister is a declaration of war on the Iraqi people.

Kata’ib Hezbollah statement regarding the election of Mustafa al-Kadhimi by the political currents of the Iraqi parliament:

– “It is unfortunate that politics in Iraq has reached this stage of decline, and the political forces that make up the majority are succumbing to a sensitive and incompatible issue.

– The consensus to introduce a suspicious person, is a disregard for the rights and sacrifices of the people, as well as a betrayal of Iraqi history.

– Political forces surrendered to the pressure and choice of enemies and fell into their trap.

– This conspiracy means declaring war on the Iraqi people, and the sincere and compatriots of Iraq must play their part in rejecting this plan.

\– We will not stop chasing the people who were involved in the killing of the commanders of Nasr (Hajj Qasim Soleimani and Abu Mahdi al-Mohandes) and we will not remain silent until we bring them to justice.”
