🪖 US-LED FORCES BEGIN WITHDRAWAL FROM IRAQI KURDISTAN — FINAL EXIT SET FOR SEPTEMBER 30

The US-led coalition has begun withdrawing personnel and military equipment from Iraq’s Kurdistan Region, with the remaining forces expected to leave Iraq by September 30, 2026, under the Baghdad-Washington agreement.

The withdrawal marks the end of the current US military mission in Iraq, which dates back to the 2003 US-led invasion. US forces returned in 2015 as part of the international campaign against ISIS.

Kurdistan officials say the drawdown from the region, including Erbil, is already underway, while US air-defense systems are also scheduled to be withdrawn.

🇮🇷 IRAN: PEOPLE’S UNITY KEY TO NATIONAL DEFENSE, SAYS DEFENSE MINISTRY

Iranian Defense Ministry spokesman Brig. Gen. Reza Talaei-Nik says the experience of the “Sacred Defense” showed that national power extends beyond military equipment and capabilities.

Talaei-Nik stressed that preserving and strengthening this social capital remains important to Iran’s defense foundation and national security.

🚨🔭 SAUDI ARABIA REPORTEDLY SEEKS TWO-WEEK TRUCE WITH HOUTHIS

Saudi Arabia has reportedly asked Oman to approach Ansar Allah (Houthis) for a two-week truce, according to a senior source cited by Al Mayadeen.
The reported pause would be used to open negotiations focused on resolving the humanitarian situation in Yemen.

The claim comes amid a sharp escalation in fighting, with Houthi forces making significant advances along Yemen’s Red Sea coast and Saudi Arabia seeking additional support for its air-defense capabilities.

⚠️ Note: The reported Saudi request has not yet been independently confirmed by Saudi or Omani authorities.

🔴 AL-HOUTHI REJECTS SAUDI MECCA CLAIMS, ACCUSES RIYADH OF “DEFAMATION CAMPAIGN”

Ansarullah leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has rejected Saudi Arabia’s claims that Yemen targeted the holy city of Mecca, describing the allegation as baseless.
Al-Houthi accused Riyadh of using what he called a “defamation campaign” to justify its actions against Yemen and alleged that Saudi Arabia seeks control over Yemen rather than relations based on mutual respect.

The remarks come amid continued tensions and competing accusations between Saudi Arabia and Yemen.

🚨🇸🇦🇨🇳🇮🇷 BIG: Saudi Arabia Turns to China to Rein in Houthis

Saudi Arabia has reportedly asked China to privately pressure Iran to use its influence over the Houthis and restrain the group following its rapid advance along Yemen’s Red Sea coast and around the strategic Bab al-Mandeb Strait, according to Reuters, citing three Iranian sources familiar with the discussions.

Beijing reportedly wants Tehran to help prevent further disruption to vital energy and shipping routes. China has publicly called for restraint, dialogue and safe navigation, while the details of its private message to Iran remain unclear.

The Houthi capture of Mocha and nearby strategic positions has increased their ability to influence traffic through Bab al-Mandeb, adding to concerns over regional energy security.
