Summary
Abbas Aragchi left for Baghdad on Sunday for talks with senior Iraqi officials on bilateral ties and wider regional and international developments, according to IRNA.
The trip comes after a fresh round of US strikes on several Iranian installations and Tehran's retaliatory attacks on Bahrain and Kuwait, which have sharpened regional tensions.
Iraq is a key stop as Tehran seeks consultations with a neighboring government caught between US military pressure, Iranian influence and fears of broader spillover.
The visit also follows reports of security strains in Baghdad, including Green Zone raid rumors, underscoring how quickly the confrontation is rippling across the region.
