Quds Force commander: "The militias in Iraq have stopped attacking American forces" "This would not have been possible without his direct intervention," says a senior commander in one of the militias supported by Iran. Since February 4, there have been no attacks on US forces in Iraq and Syria, compared to more than 20 in the two weeks preceding Qaani's visit.

The militias launched their attacks against American forces in the region following Washington's support for Israel's war against Hamas. The next day, the Hezbollah Brigades announced the suspension of its attacks on American forces.
