My take:
"neighboring country" means #Iran's Revolutionary Guards (IRGC).

#BREAKING
24 militia members and dozens of other Iraqi PMF/PMU members, #Iran's IRGC officers and Hezbollah members were killed and injured during Monday's massive explosions at an Iraqi Shiite militia base in southern Baghdad, according to an Iraqi military official
