In a statement to Iran's Tasnim news agency, Brigadier General Mohammad Pakpour, the commander of the IRGC Ground Force, shed light on growing concern over Baghdad's protracted inertia.
His remarks alluded to an "extant agreement" that obligates the Iraqi government to neutralize anti-Iranian elements percolating along the sensitive border regions.
"We offered the [Iraqi] government a grace period to uphold its commitments and dislodge the terrorists. However,

Questioned on the exact duration of this grace period, Pakpour cryptically hinted that such knowledge is a prerogative of the Iraqi government solely.
