The United State Government has admitted not notifying the Iraqi government before its recent air strikes in the country after a top White House official claimed Baghdad had been informed in advance.

State Department deputy spokesman Vedant Patel said on Monday that Iraqi officials were only informed after the strikes on Iranian-linked targets.

Recall that President Joe Biden on Friday ordered air strikes against 85 targets in Iraq and Syria alleged to be linked to Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and pro-Iranian groups, due to a drone attack in Jordan that killed three US troops.
