 He added, "Due to intelligence efforts and effective operations, the Asayish forces successfully deterred terrorist organizations, since the fall of the former regime and until 2017, from threatening the areas and villages of Khanaqin," stressing the need for intelligence and security coordination between the security services and al-Hashd al-Shaabi (Popular Mobilization Forces-PMF) with the Asayish forces.

 "The Asayish forces have established security and stability in all areas of Khanaqin, far from considerations of extremism, nationalism, and sectarianism, and they have been the guardian of security for all components," he added.

 Hassan called on the security leaderships and officials to "deter the subversive officers in the security services and PMF from stirring up riots for nationalist, sectarian motives, or other interests." 

PUK's media official in Khanaqin highlighted the necessity of curbing "infiltrators" in security formations and preventing them from exploiting the legal security system for a personal goal or abusing its sanctity, in reference to the incident that took place in Khanaqin when PMF members, for provocative reasons, insulted the Peshmarga, the Asayish, and the Kurdish entity in the district.
