Following are excerpts from the Arabic text
Forces affiliated with National Security Advisor “Karim Shahpouri,” have resorted to a cruel and unprecedented act of surrounding one of the buildings in Camp Ashraf, which belongs to refugees.
These forces asked residents of the building to leave and informed them that the National Security Advisor has ordered the evacuation of the building, even though the building was built with the money and labor of Camp Ashraf residents. There is also a full surrounding of the camp preventing medial supplies, food, and fuel, to be transferred into it.
These simultaneous attempts are meant to impose pressure on Ashraf residents in order to make them bow down to Tehran’s demands. …
Attacking Camp Ashraf, where members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) reside, and prevention of entry of food, water and other basic human needs to the camp for the use of its residents, is an unjustifiable act. We fear that these actions would willingly or unwillingly lead to a sort of treachery. In the Iraqi lexicon, there is no good word for treachery toward guests or any other person taking refuge in the country…”
