The list backing incumbent Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani has scored a big win in parliament after elections, sources close to his alliance told AFP on Wednesday.

Sudani’s “Reconstruction and Development list has secured a major victory” following the vote on Tuesday, an official close to the PM said, with another two sources saying the premier’s alliance has “won the largest bloc”, with approximately 50 seats.

Sudani has emerged as a major force in Iraqi politics after he was brought to power three years ago by an alliance of pro-Iran groups. (AFP)
