America expects to help Iraq in obstructing the financing of the factions. The Pentagon said that a drone attack on a US military site near the Jordanian-Syrian border on Sunday bore the "fingerprints" of the Iraqi armed group Kataib Hezbollah.

Groups allied with Iran have launched attacks on Israeli and American targets from Lebanon, Yemen, Iraq and Syria since the outbreak of the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip on October 7. Iraqi armed factions have claimed responsibility for more than 150 attacks on American forces in the region since then.
