Al-Sudani reiterated the "unwavering commitment of the Armed Forces to their professional, constitutional, and legal trajectory." He underscored their role in fostering development, consolidating security, maintaining civil peace, and safeguarding a dignified life for all Iraqi citizens.

Speaking about the liberation of Mosul, Al-Sudani highlighted its significance as a key battle that defied expectations. He commended the religious authority that Ayatollah Sayyid Ali al-Sistani represented and the Iraqi populace's sacrifices for thwarting the sinister agenda of ISIS.
