Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has caused a stir with his recent speech at the United Nations, raising concerns about a possible military attack on Iraq. In his address to the UN General Assembly on September 26, Netanyahu directly referenced Iraq, signaling potential consequences for resistance groups operating within the country. This statement follows Israel’s military actions in Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria. The inclusion of Iraq in the speech, along with a map highlighting countries with resistance groups, has been viewed as a direct threat and has drawn strong reactions from Iraqi officials. Iraqi Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein condemned Netanyahu’s threats, calling them unacceptable and stating that any attack against Iraq would be considered an attack on the entire nation. The situation is further complicated by the presence of various militant groups within Iraq, some of which are believed to be supported by Iran. As regional tensions escalate, the international community is closely monitoring the unfolding developments.
