On Wednesday, the army deployed units with armored vehicles and tanks, after the arrest of Qasem Muslah, Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) operations chief for Anbar province, which sparked widespread reactions. Muslah was detained based on a judicial investigation and arrest warrant on terrorism charges, Iraq's military said in a statement. Shortly after the arrest, a number of armed factions loyal to Iran roamed the streets of Baghdad in a failed show of force and to pressure the authorities to release Muslah.
