Saturday, 05 October 2019
Anti-government demonstration in Baghdad
Baghdad: «Middle East Online»
The death toll from the Iraqi protests that began on Tuesday rose to 73, most of them demonstrators, while about 3,000 were injured, the parliamentary Human Rights Commission said on Saturday.
The death toll includes at least six policemen killed in clashes between anti-government demonstrators and security forces in Baghdad and several areas in the south of the country, according to medical and police sources.
Prime Minister and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Adel Abdul-Mahdi chaired a meeting of security leaders at the Federal Police Headquarters in the presence of the Ministers of Defense and Interior, Najah Al-Shammari and Yassin Al-Yasiri. The meeting discussed recent developments in the demonstrations.
There were violent clashes on Friday between demonstrators and riot police in Baghdad.
For the first time, security forces accused “unidentified snipers” of shooting at demonstrators and security personnel in Baghdad, and rejected accusations of excessive use of force by human rights organizations.
After being activated since Wednesday evening, Abdul Mahdi ordered Friday night to lift the curfew from five o'clock in the morning (local time), because of the necessities and requirements of citizens in their daily lives, according to the Iraqi News Agency.
The follow-up cell in the Prime Minister's Office said it was communicating with "influential parties" in the mass movement in six provinces, which it did not specify, and there was "an agreement to meet the legitimate demands" without further details.
Since Tuesday, authorities have accused Mendesin of infiltrating the demonstrations and causing deaths.
The protest began with calls on social media to demonstrate against corruption and unemployment, the collapse of public services and chronic shortages of electricity and drinking water.
In the meantime, Speaker of the House of Representatives Mohammed Halbousi, in support of the demonstrators, saying: «Your voice arrived, your message has arrived», adding: «If I do not see the state is heading to meet the aspirations of the people and give hope in them, I will remove my jacket and find me the first person among the demonstrators ». He called on protesters to come to parliament.
Shiite leader Moqtada al-Sadr called on Friday evening for the resignation of the Iraqi government headed by Adel Abdul-Mahdi and the holding of early elections under the supervision of the United Nations, amid the escalation of demonstrations.
The unprecedented protests, due to their spontaneous nature in a country accustomed to partisan, tribal and sectarian movements, represent the first test of Abdul Mahdi's government, which took office a year ago and demanded more time on Wednesday evening.
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights has urged the government to conduct an "urgent" and "transparent" investigation into the deaths of demonstrators.

"The Khosravi outlet with Iraq will be opened on Friday as the Iraqi authorities have informed us," Zulfiqari told Iranian television on Thursday evening.

British report reads protests in Iraq: on the brink of an uprising and the government is trying to put down
https://www.shafaaq.com/ar/%

British newspapers published Friday the protests in Iraq.
The newspaper A, in a report to Patrick Coburn from Baghdad, entitled "rising death toll as protesters defy curfew."
The writer says that Iraq is on the brink of a mass popular uprising the government is seeking to put down by resolute implementation of a curfew for indefinite and indefinite Internet blackout. The protests, which were met with a ferocious response from the authorities, shook Baghdad and spread since Tuesday to the southern areas of the country.
Restricting the Internet has not prevented the demonstrators from going out, but it has made them less organized and less concentrated in areas far from central Baghdad, the writer says.
Demonstrators in Sadr City, a predominantly Shiite area east of Baghdad, attacked the headquarters of the municipal administration and set fire to the headquarters of the Dawa Party. Doctors say about 600 people were injured yesterday, most of them by rubber bullets fired at the neck and chest.
The writer says that most of the demonstrators are under the age of twenty, and therefore do not remember the time before the fall of Saddam Hussein in 2003. He says that the demonstrations have no specific leadership, and this means that the government does not find anyone to talk to it if they wish?
Moqtada al-Sadr, a cleric whose followers played a role in protests in previous years, said in a tweet that he supported the protests, but "did not want them to be politicized" and that he did not directly invite his followers to participate.

Wissm al-Okili, REUTERS | A demonstrator runs between burning tires during a curfew in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, on October 3, 2019.
Iraqi security forces used live ammunition and tear gas against some 4,000 protesters who defied a curfew in Baghdad and clashed with riot police across the south on Thursday, the third day of mass rallies that have left at least 27 dead.

Defying curfews, tear gas and live rounds, thousands of demonstrators gathered across the country to vent anger over corruption, unemployment and poor services in the biggest challenge yet to Iraqi Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi.
The embattled premier made a televised speech early Friday as heavy gunfire rang out across Baghdad, saying there was no “magic solution” to Iraq’s chronic governance problems and graft but pledging to try to pass a law granting poor families a basic income.
In his first public address since protests began, Abdul Mahdi said the security measures imposed in the wake of this week’s violence, including the temporary curfew, were “difficult choices” but were needed like “bitter medicine” that has to be swallowed.

Nidal lived the epic of modern times. His march of independence in the twentieth century began with the face of the British Mandate, which began not at the end of World War I, but with the outbreak.
After the outbreak of the war in 1914 and the Ottomans' alliance with Germany against the European allies led by Britain, France and Tsarist Russia, Britain's strategic transport links with its colonies were cut off. .
The occupation of Iraq was among a number of goals sought by Britain. After the end of the occupation of Iraq, it was placed under the mandate of the League of Nations and under the British administration in 1918. From the date of the mandate, until the Declaration of Independence on October 3, 1932, the people of Iraq embarked on a journey of struggle and struggle to regain full freedom.
This remarkable struggle was manifested in the 20th Revolution against the British occupation and against the policy of "looting" Iraq, which aimed at annexing it to the British Empire. The revolution was one of the most prominent uprisings in the Arab world, which took place after Britain renounced its promises to the Arabs.

The protestors actually do have this on their list of demands. This is all VERY good for us and our investment. A government like the GOI can’t keep making these promises to the people and then do nothing. Eventually the people will rise up and do something to get what was promised...is the GOI going to meet the demands? We know one of them is the currency reform. The demonstrators gave them 15 days to meet the demands.
