Qaani contented himself with his refusal to escalate the factions against the Iraqi government. He called on them to accept the election results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the meeting, the Iranian official went to meet al-Kadhimi, and informed him of his rejection of the assassination attempt and his unawareness of it and his willingness to assist in the investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On Monday, the Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced an agreement with Iraq to help reveal those involved in the assassination attempt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reports indicate that Iranian-backed factions orchestrated the assassination attempt, but official statements have not yet revealed who carried out the operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Reporting by Peshawa Bahlawi<\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Commander of #Quds_Force in the #IRGC, Esmail Qaani paid unannounced visit to #Iraq. #Iran  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":67335,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pgc_sgb_lightbox_settings":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-67334","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-middle-east"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.2 -
