Statement of Denial and Condemnation The Popular Mobilization Forces deny the validity of the claims made by an activist on the satellite channel regarding Iranian consultants who receive salaries from the Iraqi government during Iraq's war against terrorist groups, and confirms that irresponsible statements of this type constitute an insult to the facts of this phase, disrespect for the blood of the martyrs, and support terrorism on the front of the martyrs. The Islamic Republic of Iran provided support to Iraq, including weapons and equipment, some of which were provided free of charge, in addition to sending advisers from its best leaders to support the Popular Mobilization Forces, 55 of whom were killed, in addition to a large number of wounded. When we remember these positions, we salute with reverence and admiration all the martyrs who volunteered to defend Iraq and the Holy Land without compensation, first and foremost to the Holy of Holies, the great commander Hajj Qassem Soleimani (may God sanctify his secret), who embodied in his blood the highest meanings of terrorism in the sacrifice and since the sacrifice. Acting on these facts is not a blessing to Iraq, but is fairness to the victims and maintaining loyalty, and denying them is not consistent with the authenticity of the Iraqi citizen and his moral and national values.
