Iraqi Prime Minister Moustafa al-Kazimi came out unscathed from an attack with an explosive drone
launched against his residence, located in the Green zone of Baghdad. Security sources reported this. The attack took place while hundreds of pro-Iranian protesters are protesting with a sit-in at the entrance to the Green zone against the result of the parliamentary elections on 10 October. Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhemi then said he was "fine" and called for "calm and restraint".
"I'm fine, praise God, and I ask for calm and restraint from everyone for the sake of Iraq," al-Kadhemi wrote on Twitter as tensions rise in the country.
The attempt to assassinate Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhemi represents a new insurrection, the traces of which should be sought in the think tanks of some foreign countries: the head of the Iranian Supreme National Security Council (SNSC), Ali Shamkhani tweeted today. .
"These countries have brought nothing to Iraq but insecurity and discord through the creation and support of terrorist groups, as well as the occupation of that country," said Shamkhani.
