Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani ordered security agencies Thursday to take “maximum measures” against those involved in attacks on vital institutions and diplomatic missions and the abduction of foreign nationals.

Sudani issued the directive during a visit to the headquarters of the Federal Intelligence and Investigations Agency at the Interior Ministry in Baghdad, according to the Iraqi News Agency.

He was briefed on the agency’s efforts to confront recent incidents involving attacks on diplomatic missions and kidnappings of foreigners.

Sudani said such acts harm Iraq’s reputation and threaten the interests of its citizens.

“There will be no red lines before the implementation of the law, regardless of the parties involved,” he said.

Regional tensions have escalated since the US and Israel launched a joint offensive on Iran on Feb. 28, killing more than 1,340 people to date, including then-Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

Iran has retaliated with drone and missile strikes targeting Israel as well as Jordan, Iraq and Gulf countries hosting US military assets.
