Iraq on high alert as Iran reportedly eyes US Embassy retaliation

Baghdad ( – Tensions in the Middle East have escalated sharply following U.S. airstrikes on Iran's nuclear facilities on June 21, targeting key nuclear sites in Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan. In response, Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani has ordered increased security across Baghdad's Green Zone, while U.S. diplomatic missions and military bases have implemented heightened precautionary measures. Iraqi sources suggest that Iran may consider targeting the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad in retaliation for the damage to its nuclear program. Iranian Defense Minister Aziz Nasirzadeh warned that 'all U.S. bases are within our reach' in the event of further conflict. This includes prominent sites in Iraq—such as Al-Asad Air Base, Camp Taji, and Ramadi—as well as bases across the Gulf. The United States has already evacuated non-essential personnel from its embassy in Baghdad and authorized military dependents to leave key bases in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Qatar. Iraq now finds itself at the heart of a fragile and dangerous standoff. With both domestic and foreign targets on alert, any misstep could trigger a broader regional escalation.

Iraqi, Syrian FMs warn of regional chaos

Shafaq News/ On Saturday, Iraqi Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein met with his Syrian counterpart, Asaad al-Shibani, in Istanbul to discuss regional tensions and bilateral relations, on the sidelines of the 51st session of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) Council of Foreign Ministers. During the meeting, Hussein cautioned that continued escalation threatens to plunge the Middle East into widespread chaos with heavy costs for all. He also referred to Iraq's initiative, presented during the recent emergency meeting of Arab foreign ministers, which calls for the formation of an Arab-Islamic committee tasked with engaging all parties to broker a ceasefire and resume negotiations. Both parties also reviewed political and economic developments in Syria and explored ways to strengthen cooperation.
