Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi says Iran and Iraq are preparing for a "historic" funeral for the martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei.

The Iranian foreign minister and governors of the holy Iraqi cities of Karbala and Najaf discuss arrangements for the upcoming funeral ceremonies of late Ayatollah Khamenei in Iraq.

The Baghdad government has set September 30 deadline for resistance groups to hand over their weapons.

Iraqi authorities have arrested 67 officials, including lawmakers, political figures, and business owners, in a major anti-corruption crackdown ahead of Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi's visit to the US next month.

Araghchi met with Iraqi President Nezar Amidi, Parliament Speaker Hebat al-Halbousi, and National Security Adviser Qasim al-Araji.

The Iraqi prime minister affirmed Baghdad’s strong support for dialogue and diplomatic solutions to end regional wars.
