Iranian-backed militias are using head of prime minister's office, Abu Jehad Al Hashimi, to press on Adil Abdul-Mahdi to purchase S-400 missile defense system from Russia, well-informed sources said on Sunday.
The sources added that such deal with Russia will disturb the Iraqi-US relations especially in their joint fight against terrorism.
More details will be reported soon.
