🇮🇶 IRAQ SETS 2027 DEADLINE FOR MILITIAS
- Iraqi Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi says Iran-backed militias will have until June 30, 2027, to surrender their weapons and stop operating as independent armed groups.
- The plan calls for an initial 90-day truce, followed by the handover of weapons and individual integration of fighters into state forces. Groups that remain armed under their own names after the deadline would be considered outlaws.
