AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Iraq Government Reset: Iraq’s parliament has approved Ali Al-Zaidi’s government confidence vote, backing 14 ministerial nominees and clearing the way for him to be sworn in, though planning and higher education posts were rejected—leaving nine ministries still to fill after Eid al-Adha. Strait of Hormuz Pressure on Iraq’s Economy: With shipping risk rising, Iraq is cutting oil prices sharply for May exports, using “free-on-board” terms and removing force majeure to push risk onto buyers as fewer vessels make it through. Security & Accountability: A report claims Israel has operated a secret base in Iraq’s desert to support air operations against Iran, and that strikes hit Iraqi troops who neared it—sparking fresh questions as Iraq’s leadership changes. Local Health Hit: In Sulaimani province, lightning strikes killed three and injured three more, including a father and his 11-year-old son. Healthcare-Adjacent Note: Kuwait’s Ray Hotel by Cloud 7 appointed Mohammad Taha as general manager, continuing regional hospitality expansion.
