— 🇮🇶 🇮🇶 NOTE: Regarding the news of Iraqi PMF fighters arriving at the front, I have contacted one of my sources in Al Bukamal.
As you know, the PMF consists of many different Shiite militias, which all operate under the same umbrella organization, the PMF, within the Iraqi Armed Forces, when it comes to national defense. However, these militias all have different leaders, goals, command structures, and ideologies.
My source says that two or three factions from within the Iraqi Popular Mobilization Forces have taken the individual and independent decision to join the fight against HTS terrorists in Syria. It is not a large amount, a few hundred fighters for now.
This is carried out without supervision from the PMF's authorities, that's why the spokesman denied that there is any official PMF deployment to Syria: Any deployment of PMF forces to Syria is an independent decision by the individual factions, which is not within the framework of PMF operations.
