Secret Movements of Quds Force Commander in Baghdad

Security sources monitored General Esmail Qaani's arrival in Baghdad on an unannounced, urgent emergency visit today. The visit aims to hold closed meetings with Coordination Framework leaders and Tehran-allied armed faction heads. Qaani seeks to contain deep differences that struck the Shiite political house and delayed government formation. Iranian movements coincide with escalating Gulf tension to message that Baghdad is a strategic card held. The United States closely monitors this visit's details, considering it an attempt to destabilize the Iraqi arena. Leaks indicate Qaani discussed a potential response plan against American presence if a comprehensive confrontation erupts. The Iraqi street expresses concern about turning the country into a battlefield for settling complex regional accounts. The Iraqi government remains silent regarding this visit, which falls under unofficial, usual activities of Iranian leaders. Qaani's success in unifying his allies will strengthen Tehran's negotiating position in its fierce, open confrontation. The coming few days will witness dramatic changes in the Iraqi political scene based on these meetings.
