Iraqi political sources said on Tuesday that the third anniversary of the assassination of Iranian General Qassem Soleimani has sparked sharp divisions between the parties of the Coordination Framework, following reports that the government of Mohammed Shia al-Sudani agreed to a US request to prevent a “million-strong memorial march” for Soleimani in the country.
The Iranian general was killed in a US strike near Baghdad Airport on Jan. 3, 2020.
