Plan to phase out Iraqi militias by 2005 faces hurdles
The agreement aims to disband most militias including Kurdish factions and Badr Brigade by 2005 while al-Sadr’s al-Mahdi Army resists. Despite an accord in Kufa and Najaf, violence continues with bombings and attacks in Ramadi, Fallujah, Mosul, and Baghdad. Reported casualties include police, soldiers, and civilians amid ongoing clashes and a sensitive shift toward state control of armed groups.
