Iraq sets 30 June 2027 as deadline to end weapons outside state control

Iraq ·

National Security Adviser Qassem al-Abboudi set 30 June 2027 as the final deadline for ending the presence of any weapons outside state control. He announced that five factions had joined the plan to limit weapons, and said the government would continue implementing it.

Iraq's armed factions, many of them part of the Popular Mobilization Forces, have long operated alongside the state, and successive governments have sought to bring all weapons under state control.
