The 1st Division (IFF) is a motorized infantry division of the Iraqi Army headquartered in Camp Fallujah.

The division, along with much of the Iraqi Army, is equipped with American supplied weapons, equipment, and vehicles. The division suffered heavy casualties in the fight against the Islamic State during the 2013-2017 War but has regained its strength in the last few years.
