The Iraqi government announced that it had submitted an official protest note to the Secretary-General of the United Nations and to the UN Security Council, which included condemnation of the “flagrant violation” committed by Israel when its “aggressive” aircraft violated Iraq’s airspace and sovereignty, and used Iraqi airspace to carry out the attack on Iran.
Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani directed the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to communicate with the American side regarding this violation, in accordance with the terms of the bilateral strategic framework agreement, and the United States’ commitment to the security and sovereignty of Iraq.
The Iraqi government affirmed its firm commitment to Iraq’s sovereignty, independence and the sanctity of its territory, and that it is working at various levels to confront these violations, and stresses that it will not allow the use of Iraqi airspace or territory to attack other countries, especially neighboring countries that have relations of respect and common interests with Iraq.
