Following an emergency meeting chaired by Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi, the council said the measures being implemented are intended to strengthen border and internal security, prevent violations of Iraq's sovereignty, and ensure that no group or actor launches attacks on neighboring countries from Iraqi territory.

The council said the strikes occurred while Baghdad was already in contact with Washington and Riyadh to address their concerns over attacks launched from Iraq against Saudi Arabia, reaffirming Iraq's commitment to resolving regional disputes through dialogue, cooperation, and diplomacy.

The decision on whether to attack Iran rests with President Trump unless Iran chooses to attack Israel.

There are no free attacks, and the Iranians understand that Israel will respond.

The official said that Israel is continuously reviewing intelligence related to the site and said decisions on Iran rest with President Trump, with "everything on the table, from an agreement to a significant attack."

The Strait of Hormuz is an international waterway.

The IRGC has no authority to dictate routes for free and open traffic flow. Commercial vessels continue to use the strait with U.S. military support.

Since early May, CENTCOM forces have helped approximately 1,000 vessels and 500 million barrels of crude oil pass through the narrow waterway.
