According to Azzaman daily, a senior Iraqi politician and an association of jurists in Iraq have condemned the siege on Camp Ashraf in separate statements.

This week, in the latest development in a series of cruel actions against Camp Ashraf, the Iraqi committee in charge of suppressing the camp prevented four trucks carrying basic necessities for the residents to enter the camp.

A Senior Iraqi politician denounced severe restrictions on Camp Ashraf on Tuesday. 

Sheikh Khalaf al-Alian, General Secretary of the National Dialogue Council, told Malaf news agency in an interview, “The residents of Ashraf are the Iraqi people’s guests and must not be subjected to a siege. They should not be deprived of access to basic necessities and medicine.”

Italian Daily ‘Liberal’ published an article titled “Maleki: Ayatollahs’ Best Friend” and wrote: Iraq’s current Prime Minister is looking to form a union with Tehran.
“News coming from Ashraf indicates Maleki has started a new round of harassment against the Iranian community in this small city north of Baghdad,” goes the article, mentioning Maleki’s pressures against Ashraf to gain the Iranian regime’s support.

Subsequent to a wave of international condemnations of threats by the Iranian regime and its Iraqi proxies against the lives and security of Camp Ashraf residents, the Diyala police announced that it has no intention of attacking the camp. Camp Ashraf is situated in Diyala province in Iraq, north of Baghdad.
