Though Iran-backed militias deny involvement, Baghdad has confirmed the attacks originated within its borders—and already fired a top military commander. With a September 30 deadline to disarm, powerful militias refuse to comply, heightening tensions. Arab nations condemn the strikes, while Saudi Arabia avoids immediate retaliation, giving Iraq time to act. Simultaneously, Iraq shutters two key border crossings with Iran amid investigations into past breaches. As global oil prices soar and shipping routes in the Strait of Hormuz face disruption, the crisis underscores the volatile proxy wars gripping the Middle East—and the fragile truce in Yemen hanging by a thread.
