Iraqi forces wage a new psychological warfare against Camp Ashraf residents

Ashraf – Breach of Obligations – N° 6

Reconnaissance by Iranian intelligence agents in various parts of the camp

NCRI - On Wednesday (4 January) at 11:30 pm, Captain Ahmad Khozeir engaged in threatening the lives of the residents of Camp Ashraf. He then directed six armored Humvee vehicles to enter the southern part of the camp to create an atmosphere of fear and intimidate the residents.

Simultaneously at Laleh Square, Ashraf’s main street which is occupied by the Iraqi forces, Iraq’s rapid deployment forces using their sirens for over an hour deprived the residents of their sleep waging a new psychological war against the residents. Agents of the Iranian Ministry of Intelligence and Security (MOIS), with the full support of the Iraqi forces, have engaged in reconnaissance by photographing and filming different parts of the camp setting the stage for future terrorist acts. Frequent complaints by the residents to the Iraqi officers at the scene have been futile (photos attached).

Following reconnaissance operations conducted by the agents of the clerical regime assisted by Iraqi forces, on December 27, 28 and 29 Katyusha rockets were fired at the residence quarters of the camp. In another development on Wednesday the Iraqi forces looted the buildings which were occupied during the April 8 attack in the northern section of the camp.

These acts are in clear violation of the assurances given to the United Nations by the Iraqi government concerning the residents.
