Two Iraqi Tribes Declare Their Readiness to Carry Out Suicide Operations for Iran in a War with the U.S. and Israel
(MEMRI) On Jan. 28 and 30, 2026, leaders in two major Iraqi tribes, the Anizah tribe and the Shammar tribe, announced a "general mobilization" and readiness to embark on "jihad" under the banner of Iraq's Iran-backed Hizbullah Brigades militia, to defend Iran and its leader, Ali Khamenei, in a war with the U.S. and Israel. The tribal leaders declared that all their men are at Khamenei's command, prepared to sacrifice their lives for him. These statements followed a call issued on Jan. 25 by the head of the Hizbullah Brigades, Abu Husayn Al-Hamidawi, urging jihad fighters worldwide to prepare for all-out war alongside Iran.
