On 23 September, Shafaq News cited an informed source saying MP Mahdi Taqi al-Amirli, head of Badr’s parliamentary bloc and a member of parliament’s Security and Defense Committee, submitted his resignation from both parliament and Badr Organization. The source said al-Amirli notified Hadi al-Amiri, Badr Organization’s secretary-general, and Badr members in a letter that gave no reason. iNEWS (KSS — affiliated) had earlier reported the dual resignation; Shafaq’s source adds the account of the letter, but neither report independently establishes that the resignations have taken effect.

“An informed source told Shafaq News that Mahdi Taqi al-Amirli, head of the Badr parliamentary bloc and a member of parliament’s Security and Defense Committee, submitted his resignation from parliament and Badr Organization. The source said he notified Badr Secretary-General Hadi al-Amiri and Badr members by letter without specifying a reason.”
Mahdi Taqi Al-Amarli, head of the Badr parliamentary bloc and a member of parliament’s Security and Defense Committee, has submitted his resignation from both Iraq’s parliament and the Badr Organization, an informed source told Shafaq News. Al-Amarli formally notified Badr Secretary-General Hadi Al-Amiri and the organization’s members in a letter, without specifying a reason for his resignation.
The reported letter places the resignation inside Badr Organization as well as parliament, rather than describing a parliamentary departure alone.
