Shafaq News / The Joint Operations Command announced on Tuesday that the international coalition has handed over the headquarters of the French advisers in Baghdad to the Iraqi forces.
"Based on the results of the fruitful dialogues between the Iraqi government and the international coalition, we received the headquarters of the advisers of the International Coalition Forces (French) in the leadership of the 6th division that they were occupying in the capital, Baghdad on 7th of April," the leadership said in a statement reported to Shafaq News.
The joint operations command statement said, "This came in accordance with the commitment of the international coalition to return the sites that were occupied within the Iraqi military bases and camps."
The international coalition led by the United States of America announced handing over military bases previously occupied to Iraqi forces, as part of an agreement between it and the Iraqi government.
The joint task force of the International Coalition stated that the exit has nothing to do with the recent attacks on the military facility.
The joint task force of the International Coalition added in a statement, that the international coalition is being redeployed inside the country, in light of what it said was success achieved by the Iraqi forces in combating the extremist organization ISIS.
Military bases, which include foreign forces in Iraq, are being under missile attacks by Iranian-linked factions, according to American accusations.
After an attack that killed an American contractor at a military base in Iraq in late 2019, the United States responded by killing a prominent Iranian military leader, Qasim Soleimani, near Baghdad airport.
Iran responded by firing missiles at Ain al-Assad base in Anbar province, in western Iraq, but without causing casualties among Americans, and attacks against bases of foreign forces have continued since.
The Iraqi parliament adopted a resolution calling on the government to work to remove foreign forces in the country, but the US President, Donald Trump, insisted on keeping his country's forces and threatened Baghdad with harsh penalties if it insisted on leaving.
