Iraqi armed group claims to offer reward over threats against Donald Trump
An Iraqi armed group claiming affiliation with the so-called Islamic Resistance in Iraq has announced what it describes as a financial reward linked to threats against U.S. President Donald Trump, according to statements circulated through the group's media channels.
The announcement follows renewed rhetoric surrounding the 2020 killing of Qassem Soleimani, the former commander of Iran’s Quds Force, and Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the former deputy head of Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces. The group said its latest statement was issued in response to comments it attributed to Trump regarding those events.
According to the statement, the group claimed that the proposed reward would be financed through contributions from its supporters. The declaration has not been independently verified, and no official evidence has been presented to support the group's claims regarding the funding or implementation of the announcement.
The statement also repeated the group's long-standing anti-U.S. position and renewed its pledge to pursue what it described as accountability for the deaths of Soleimani and al-Muhandis. Such rhetoric reflects continuing political and security tensions that have shaped relations between armed factions in the region and the United States in recent years.
Neither Iraqi authorities nor U.S. officials immediately issued detailed public comments regarding the group's latest statement. Security analysts note that declarations of this nature are often closely monitored by intelligence and law enforcement agencies because of their potential implications for regional stability and public safety.
The development comes amid ongoing geopolitical tensions across the Middle East, where relations between Iran-aligned armed groups and the United States remain strained. Governments in the region continue to emphasize the importance of preventing further escalation and maintaining regional security through diplomatic and legal channels.
