Iraq’s Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi pledged in an interview to disarm armed Shi’ite factions that refuse to take control after the defeat of an al-Qaeda organization, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Shi’ite factions armed with the Iraqi army and security forces have taken control of most of the areas hit by the group three years ago in northern Iraq.
Abadi has defended the rally over the past two days in front of US calls for the return of armed factions loyal to Iran to their homes.
