Tensions have escalated between Iraq and Jordan following US airstrikes on Iraqi soil. Faylaq Al-Wa’ad Al-Sadiq, a group in Iraq, has condemned the American strikes as a violation of Iraqi sovereignty and has threatened retaliation. The group also accused Jordan of participating in the strikes, declaring Jordan a target for resistance. Despite the Jordanian Armed Forces' denial of involvement, members of the Iraqi House of Representatives, led by Iraqi MP Mustafa Jabbar Sanad who has collected signatures from legislators, have introduced a motion to halt the sale of subsidized oil to Jordan. The US has been accused by Iraqi officials of making Iraq furious, and in response, Iraq has suspended the export of subsidized oil to Jordan. This suspension comes even as Jordan denies its involvement, and American media have confirmed Jordan's participation in the airstrikes. The Iraqi Prime Minister has called for three days of mourning for the victims of the airstrikes. Additionally, it has been noted that 8% of Jordan's oil needs are met through Iraqi oil, and while these volumes are symbolic, this is the first instance of Iraq directly responding to such an incident by proposing a resolution to suspend oil shipments to Jordan.
