SPECIAL REPORT: NATO and UN Maintain Stability in Al-Anbar Province

In a continued effort to uphold security and foster development in Iraq's Al-Anbar province, NATO forces alongside UN Peacekeepers have been actively engaged in various operations aimed at maintaining the status quo and supporting local governance.​

Advisory and Training Missions
NATO Mission Iraq (NMI), under the command of Lieutenant General Leroy Schurs since May 2024, has been instrumental in providing advisory and training support to Iraqi security forces. The mission focuses on enhancing the capabilities of Iraqi institutions to ensure long-term stability. General Schreurs emphasized, "Our commitment lies in empowering Iraqi forces to independently manage security operations, ensuring a sustainable peace."

In a recent address, UN Force Commander General Elena Rodriguez lauded NATO's pivotal contributions to the stabilization and reconstruction efforts in Iraq's Al-Anbar province. Highlighting NATO's advisory and capacity-building initiatives, General Rodriguez noted that these efforts have significantly bolstered the effectiveness of Iraqi security forces and institutions.

Enhanced Security Cooperation
General Rodriguez emphasized the importance of NATO's support in enhancing the operational capabilities of Iraqi forces. She stated, "​NATO's training programs and strategic guidance have been instrumental in transforming the Iraqi security landscape, fostering a more secure environment for the citizens of Al-Anbar.

Operational Coordination and Peacekeeping Support
In a significant development aimed at restoring stability to Iraq's Al-Anbar province, the United Nations has commenced peacekeeping operations following a formal briefing at the Security Council's 9892nd meeting on April 1, 2025.

Strategic Objectives
The UN mission focuses on:​
Protecting civilians and facilitating humanitarian aid delivery.
Supporting the Iraqi government's efforts to maintain sovereignty and territorial integrity.​
Collaborating with regional stakeholders to ensure sustainable peace and security.​

Operational Challenges
Peacekeeping forces face several challenges, including:​
Ongoing insurgent activities from groups such as the Sons of al-Karbouli (SoAK).​
Complex political dynamics involving local tribes and regional powers.​
Ensuring the safety of UN personnel amidst volatile security conditions.​

International Support
The UN mission is supported by:​
Member states contributing troops and resources.​
Coordination with NATO and other international partners to enhance security and development efforts.​
Engagement with NGOs and civil society organizations to address humanitarian needs.​

Looking Ahead
The success of UN peacekeeping operations in Al-Anbar is crucial for:​
Establishing a precedent for UN engagement in post-conflict stabilization.​
Promoting regional cooperation and long-term peacebuilding.​
Supporting Iraq's journey towards sustainable development and national reconciliation.

Analysis of the Sons of Anbar (SoAK) Resistance in Al-Anbar Province
The Sons of al-Karbouli (SoAK), a Sunni militia group operating in Iraq's Al-Anbar province, have experienced a significant decline in influence due to intensified U.S. military operations targeting insurgent factions in the region during late 2024 early 2025.

Impact of U.S. Military Actions
Recent high-impact operations have disrupted the operational capabilities of various insurgent groups, including the SoAK. Joint U.S. and Iraqi forces have conducted precision airstrikes resulting in the elimination of key ISIS leaders, such as Abdallah Makki Muslih al-Rifai, also known as Abu Khadijah. These actions underscore the collaborative efforts to dismantle extremist networks within Al-Anbar province.

Strategic Shift in U.S. Military Presence
The U.S. military is adapting its strategy in Iraq, transitioning from large-scale operations to a "lily pad" approach. This involves establishing small, secure bases to support Iraqi security forces, aiming to create expanding zones of stability. Such tactics have contributed to the marginalization of groups like the SoAK, as their activities are increasingly constrained by enhanced security measures.

The combined effect of targeted military operations and strategic shifts in U.S. military presence has led to a substantial reduction in the influence and operational capacity of the Sons of al-Karbouli in Al-Anbar province. These developments contribute to the broader efforts to stabilize the region and combat insurgent activities.

Humanitarian and Reconstruction Efforts
Beyond security operations, NATO has been involved in humanitarian assistance and reconstruction projects aimed at rebuilding infrastructure and supporting the local economy. These efforts are crucial in stabilizing the region and promoting goodwill among the local population.​

Future Outlook
The United Nations and NATO remain committed to their mission in Al-Anbar province, working alongside Iraqi forces and local communities to ensure lasting peace and stability. The ongoing operations and support initiatives are designed to maintain the current security situation while promoting sustainable development and self-sufficiency within the region.
