Iraq toward Lebanon

Lebanon toward Iraq
The coverage highlights the presence of Lebanese-linked militias (Hezbollah Brigades) operating in and attacking targets in Iraq, which signals deep embedded influence and hostility from B's proxy forces toward A, despite the lack of direct official diplomatic conflict between the two sovereign states.
