Will the protests in Iraq create an intra-Shiite conflict?
2019-11-03
[Rudaw] The threat of an intra-Shiite conflict in Iraq is rising after the deputy head of the Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), also known as Hashd al-Shaabi in Arabic, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis warned that they will interfere against the protests "at the right time", while some PMF fighters published a video refusing to obey the orders to confront the protesters.

In a video uploaded Sunday, al-Muhandis denounced the current protests in Iraq as a "temptation" driven by a foreign agenda to destabilize Iraq.

"We are aware that a temptation is being driven by foreign agendas in order to destabilize Iraq through the protests" al-Muhandis said.
