The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Security forces deployed in Baghdad’s Green Zone amid reports of arrests

Iraqi special security forces were deployed early Sunday inside Baghdad’s fortified Green Zone amid reports of arrests linked to corruption investigations, according to media reports.

A security source told the Al-Mada news outlet that special forces were stationed near several sensitive headquarters in the area, with security measures tightened at some entrances and roads leading to the zone.

The source said the deployment coincided with arrest operations carried out under judicial warrants, targeting political figures, officials and security personnel whose names were reportedly included in files related to corruption and abuse of influence.

This report says the politicians and officials are wanted in a corruption case. There is chatter that the Iraqi administration suspected a US/Israel backed coup was in the works as the administration is more aligned with Iran, and the pols being arrested tend to be Sunni.
