Iran’s Ambassador to Iraq says Tehran and Baghdad have reached an agreement on mop-up operations against the main bastions and headquarters of the anti-Iran terrorist groups in the semi-autonomous Kurdistan Region, and to expel the separatists from the area.

Mohammad Kazem Al-e Sadegh wrote in a post published on the social media platform X on Tuesday that visiting Iranian delegates and the Iraqi National Security Advisor Qasim al-Araji have recently agreed that separatist terrorist elements operating in the autonomous Kurdistan Region of Iraq must be either flushed out or handed over to Iran.

The remarks come as Iran and Iraq signed a security agreement in Baghdad in March 2023, encompassing coordination in protecting the shared border.

Kurdish terrorist and separatist groups serving Western and Israeli interests have been designated as terrorist organizations by Iran.

For years, these groups have attacked Iranian security forces in Kurdish-majority areas along the western and northwestern parts of Iran.

Back in late February, five Kurdish separatist groups, including the so-called Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (PDKI), announced a political coalition to challenge the Islamic establishment in Iran and seek secession of Kurdish areas from the rest of the country.
