The inspection committee in Baghdad International Airport has found a huge number of rifles equipped with silencers, as well as light and mid-sized weapons,” Haken al-Zameli, head of the Iraqi Parliament’s security and defence commission, was quoted as saying by the Fars News Agency on Nov. 2.

“The US ambassador to Baghdad has tried to send the weapons to the Iraqi Kurdistan region, and the government should investigate this and arrest the perpetrators,” he was quoted as saying.

The Fars News Agency, an independently owned news agency in Iran that supports the regime, said a Swedish plane was also seized and described the planes as belonging to the “U.S.-led anti-ISIS coalition.”

Tessier said no equipment or cargo was confiscated by Iraqi authorities, but declined to disclose what the plane was carrying other than to say it originated from Canada.
