Are Iran-allied paramilitaries dragging Iraq into the war?
Iran-allied Iraqi paramilitaries, part of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), are escalating tensions by attacking US and Israeli interests, kidnapping an American journalist, and targeting Iraqi state institutions. Experts warn this exacerbates Iraq's internal security fragmentation, as these groups operate with ambiguous state integration while acting as Iranian proxies, risking wider conflict despite government efforts to control escalation.
