News by : (Daily Sun) -

Authorities announced that some members will face trial while others have been stripped of their military commands.

The Hezbollah Brigades, part of the Hashed al-Shaabi force, were accused of orchestrating the assault.

Over a dozen suspects were detained in connection with the July 27 attack on an agriculture ministry office.

The attack was allegedly led by the former director of the ministry office.

The government condemned the lack of discipline within the Hashed al-Shaabi and armed factions disregarding military protocols.

A security official revealed that 25 people, including fighters and the ex-ministry head, will stand trial.

The case highlights tensions over a proposed law formalising the Hashed al-Shaabi’s role in Iraq.

Formed in 2014 to combat IS, the Hashed now boasts over 200,000 fighters and holds significant political power. - AFP
