- US has removed all restrictions on Israeli military operations in Iraq.

- Previous US policy had limited Israeli actions in Iraq.
- Concerns over retaliation against US forces had influenced prior restrictions.
The United States is expected to soon complete its withdrawal from Iraq, with official confirmation of the departure of the last American soldier anticipated within days. Concurrently, Israel has reportedly received approval to conduct military operations within Iraq, a significant shift from previous U.S. policy. Previously, the U.S. had restricted Israel's ability to undertake extensive operations in Iraq and had prevented significant attacks on local forces during the war. This caution was reportedly due to concerns about violent retaliation against U.S. bases and forces stationed in the country. Now, all such limitations have been removed, granting Israel greater operational freedom in the region.
