BAGHDAD, Jan 30 (Reuters) - Iran-aligned Iraqi armed group Kataib Hezbollah announced on Tuesday the suspension of all its military operations against U.S. troops in the region, in a decision aimed at preventing "embarrassment" of the Iraqi government, the group said.
"As we announce the suspension of military and security operations against the occupation forces - in order to prevent embarrassment of the Iraqi government - we will continue to defend our people in Gaza in other ways," Kataib Hezbollah Secretary-General Abu Hussein al-Hamidawi said in a statement.
 
These guys are strategic. They're announcing it before uncle Sam strikes in the hope that Biden changes his mind

But rest assured if US does strike, they will respond in kind.

More US troops going home in bags.
