Iraqi Kurds are currently maintaining neutrality in the Middle East conflict due to fears of retaliation from Iran and a lack of support from the US, Axios reported, citing sources.
According to the news outlet, Iraqi Kurds consider the US administration's intentions regarding a change of power in Iran to be unclear, fearing an expansion of the conflict. A Kurdish source told Axios that there "cannot be regime change without [US] boots on the ground." "And our assessment is that the US is not sending boots on the ground," he added.
The source also pointed out that a potential Iranian strike against Iraqi Kurdish groups would cause them "a lot of damage" due to their lack of air defense systems and means to suppress drones.
