Iraq Denies Granting Residency to Former Syrian Regime Officers

[NPASYRIA] The Iraqi government has denied reports that it has granted temporary residency to former officers and commanders of the fallen Syrian regime, following claims circulating on social media and in some media outlets.

In a statement issued Tuesday, Brigadier General Muqdad Miri, spokesperson for Iraq's Interior Ministry, refuted the allegations, emphasizing that no such measure had been taken.

''Some social media platforms have reported that the Iraqi government has granted temporary residency on humanitarian grounds to dozens of officers and military commanders from the former Syrian regime who sought refuge in Iraq on December 7 and 8,'' Miri said, as quoted by the Iraqi News Agency.

''We categorically deny these claims and stress the importance of obtaining information only from official sources, avoiding the spread of misleading rumors,'' he added.
