Iraqi security forces launched a raid in Baghdad's fortified Green Zone early Sunday, targeting several politicians accused of financial corruption, a security official revealed.
The Green Zone, which houses the US embassy and other diplomatic missions, saw security forces in heavy vehicles, including tanks, deployed in the area.
According to the security official, the operation involved anti-terrorism forces and the military, and was carried out under judicial orders.
No official statement has been released yet, and the source did not provide further details or names of officials reportedly arrested.
