AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Arms Under State Control: Two pro-Iran Iraqi armed groups, Asaib Ahl al-Haq and Kataib al-Imam Ali, announced committees to disengage from the PMF and restrict weapons to state control, following Coordination Framework backing and after Muqtada al-Sadr ordered Saraya al-Salam to integrate. Nuclear Safety Watch: The IAEA chief said the UAE’s Barakah nuclear plant repairs could take “weeks” after a drone attack last month, with the UAE blaming militants in Iraq; no radioactive release was reported. Regional Travel Curbs: Bahrain banned citizens from traveling to Iran and Iraq until further notice, citing security risks and a crackdown tied to alleged IRGC-linked influence. Maritime Tensions: A MSC containership, Sariska V, was hit by two projectiles off Umm Qasr; MSC says crew were safe and calls it unjustified, while the IRGC claims responsibility. Oil Shock for Iraq: Iraq’s crude exports collapsed in May, down over 97% year-on-year, blamed on Strait of Hormuz disruptions and marine traffic. Training Tragedy: An American and a British soldier died in a training accident at Erbil Air Base, with investigations underway.
