Iraq Freezes Assets of Iran-Backed Militias, Including Hezbollah and Houthis, in Major Policy Shift
Iraq has frozen the financial assets of major Iran-backed militias—including Lebanon’s Hezbollah and Yemen’s Houthis—in one of its strongest moves yet to restrict Tehran-aligned networks. The directive, published in Iraq’s official gazette, comes amid rising regional tensions, U.S. pressure to curb Iranian influence, and intensified Israeli strikes on Iran-linked groups. Analysts say the decision highlights Baghdad’s struggle to balance ties with Washington and Tehran while navigating internal political and security pressures.
