Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani held a phone conversation, on Sunday, with Jordan's King Abdullah II Ibn Al-Hussein to discuss pressing regional issues.

A statement from the Prime Minister's media office highlighted that their talks centered on the situation in Syria and the ongoing war on Gaza.

Al-Sudani underscored the importance of coordinated efforts, reiterating Iraq’s commitment to supporting joint Arab and international initiatives aimed at addressing regional challenges.

He emphasized, “Security and stability in Syria are of critical importance not only to Iraq but to all countries in the region” and called for urgent action to “halt the Zionist aggression and the ongoing acts of genocide against the resilient Palestinian people.”

On his part, the Jordanian King affirmed his country's support for Syria, saying, "Jordan stands by the brothers in Syria and its territorial integrity, sovereignty, and stability."

The First Deputy Speaker of the Iraqi Parliament, Mohsen al-Mandalawi, warned of the dangers posed by recent terrorist activity in Syria and its potential impact on security and stability in Iraq and the wider region.

In a statement issued on Saturday, al-Mandalawi linked these developments to the setbacks faced by the Israeli entity in Lebanon and Gaza. He stated that the Israeli occupation's failure to dismantle the unified fronts supporting Palestine prompted it to revive the use of terrorist groups in Syria.

He asserted that the Iraqi Parliament would directly monitor this issue to ensure appropriate security measures are implemented.

Al-Mandalawi urged the commander-in-chief of the armed forces to declare heightened readiness among security forces to safeguard Iraq’s borders. He also called on security leaders to conduct field visits to assess preparations and oversee operations along the border.

The Iraqi senior official directed the parliamentary Security and Defense Committee to convene an emergency meeting to host relevant officials and discuss the recent developments.

He emphasized the need to intensify intelligence coordination with Syrian counterparts to exchange information and carry out preemptive operations to prevent the return or infiltration of terrorist groups into Iraq.

Meanwhile, the Syrian army affirmed its commitment to continue its operations against terrorist organizations, vowing to expel them and restore state control over all areas of Aleppo and its countryside. This announcement follows a large-scale assault launched by armed groups, supported by thousands of foreign fighters, heavy weaponry, and numerous drones, targeting multiple fronts in Aleppo and Idlib.
