What the grant funds

Despite its loss of key leaders as recently as September October 2024, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and other terrorist groups remain active in Iraq. In addition, U.S., Iraqi, and other allied security forces are increasingly being targeted by unmanned aerial systems (UAS) attacks from Iran-backed militia groups. Inadequate security practices leave legitimate chemical and biological material and precursor suppliers and vendors vulnerable to exploitation for use in a WMD by nefarious actors.
