Iraq denies knowing of or approving US-Saudi strikes

An Iraqi government spokesperson said Thursday that the country did not approve the deadly US-Saudi strikes against Iran-backed militants on its territory, after Washington claimed they were coordinated with Baghdad.

“The government did not have any knowledge” of the strikes and “did not approve any attacks on specific sites or groups in Iraq,” spokesperson Haider al-Aboudi said on state TV.
