The Prime Minister held an emergency session that included senior leaders of security and intelligence agencies, to discuss the field situation along the country's western border strip. During the session, accurate data was presented indicating terrorist infiltration through rugged mountainous areas, necessitating a strict security plan to close gaps. Attendees agreed on the need to increase the number of joint patrols between federal forces and the Peshmerga by forty percent, and to equip border points with thermal monitoring devices and advanced communications systems. An emergency budget was also allocated to support forces operating in those remote areas, and restructure some points proven to be weak. The Prime Minister stressed that protecting borders is a sacred duty, and any negligence in this file will not be tolerated. This meeting comes at a time when terrorist threats on the borders are escalating.
