STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSBAGHDAD - Iraq has started relocating Iranian Kurdish groups from Iraq's Kurdish region frontiers with Iran to camps far from the border as part of a security agreement between Baghdad and Tehran, Foreign Minister Fuad Hussein said on Tuesday.
"Based on the agreement between Iraq and Iran, necessary measures were taken to remove these groups from the border areas and they were housed in camps deep inside Iraqi Kurdistan," Hussein told a press conference on Tuesday. Iran has long accused Iraq's autonomous northern Kurdish region of sheltering militant groups involved in attacks against the Islamic Republic, with Iran's Revolutionary Guards in turn repeatedly targeting their bases.
Iranian officials have said that, if the deadline was missed, they could resume attacks against dissident groups inside Iraqi Kurdistan that Tehran had regularly undertaken until the end of last year.
