Iraq’s Ministry of Defense confirmed that Iraqi armed forces readiness has reached its highest operational levels, with military formations demonstrating full combat capability to carry out national defense duties. The announcement followed a strategic meeting between Prime Minister and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Ali Falah Al-Zidi and senior military commanders to review troop capabilities and address capacity requirements.<\/p>\n
The readiness confirmation coincided with an expanded security meeting convened by the Nineveh Operations Command, bringing together military leadership, Popular Mobilization Forces commanders, and provincial police leadership. The session focused on redeployment strategies across responsibility sectors to safeguard stability and preempt any attempts to undermine security gains in the northern governorate.<\/p>\n
These coordinated steps reflect the commitment of Iraq’s military leadership to reinforce internal stability, strengthen inter-agency operational cooperation, and implement flexible deployment frameworks adapted to evolving security conditions across urban, rural, and border zones.<\/p>\n

The official spokesman for the Ministry of Defense, Special Forces Major General Yahya Rasool, stated during a formal press briefing that the recent meeting between the Prime Minister and military leadership was dedicated to assessing troop readiness and examining measures to enhance operational capabilities across all service branches.<\/p>\n
Rasool explained that the Commander-in-Chief directed military leadership to elevate combat readiness further, ensuring that units receive the full spectrum of logistical, technical, and material requirements needed to perform their duties at the highest professional standard. He emphasized that military formations remain fully trained and prepared to protect Iraqi sovereignty against any emerging threats.<\/p>\n
– Equipping frontline formations with advanced weapon systems and modern technological platforms.<\/p>\n
– Expanding specialized training programs to raise tactical competence and physical readiness.<\/p>\n
– Maintaining continuous logistics support for forward defensive positions and secure communications networks.<\/p>\n
– Deepening intelligence coordination to execute proactive operations against terrorist remnants.<\/p>\n
On the regional security front, the Nineveh Operations Command of the Iraqi Army convened a high-level meeting chaired by Lt. Gen. Abdullah Al-Jubouri, with participation from PMF Nineveh Operations Commander Khudair Al-Matroohi and Provincial Police Chief Maj. Gen. Falah Al-Jarba, alongside intelligence and security officials.<\/p>\n
Participants reviewed tactical plans to redistribute troops, checkpoints, and fixed security positions across vital sectors. The discussions focused on closing gaps in shared and rural zones, establishing a unified command-and-control structure linking military and Popular Mobilization units, and dismantling criminal and terrorist networks operating outside the law.<\/p>\n
– Redistributing responsibility sectors and reinforcing joint patrols on interprovincial roads and agricultural zones.<\/p>\n
– Expanding intelligence sharing and real-time coordination among army, police, and Popular Mobilization forces.<\/p>\n
– Executing night reconnaissance patrols and ambush positions to prevent infiltration in valleys and rough terrain.<\/p>\n
– Engaging local administrations, tribal leaders, and citizens to strengthen community-driven security support.<\/p>\n
The close operational partnership between the Iraqi Armed Forces, Interior Ministry agencies, and Popular Mobilization Forces remains a decisive guarantee for preserving hard-won security achievements. Coordinated, preemptive operations deprive organized crime networks and terrorist remnants of any capacity to regroup or initiate attacks.<\/p>\n
Security analysts observe that sustained stability in liberated governorates, notably Nineveh, forms the essential foundation for reconstruction, infrastructure rehabilitation, and private investment. Continued vigilance and high troop readiness remain indispensable to protecting economic and social recovery across the country.<\/p>\n
Field assessments and supreme command directives confirm that Iraqi armed forces readiness serves as the essential shield for national sovereignty and domestic stability. By aligning central leadership directives in Baghdad with field-level deployment plans in Nineveh, Iraqi security institutions continue delivering a disciplined operational model that upholds state authority and protects citizens nationwide.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
