Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, head of the UN Assistance Mission for Iraq said:"Five days of deaths and injuries: this must stop."On Saturday, security forces broke up a mass rally in the east of Baghdad. The Iraqi parliament's human rights commission said at least 99 people had died and nearly 4,000 had been wounded since protests began in the capital on Tuesday before spreading to the south of Iraq.It is seen as the first major challenge to Prime Minister Adel Abdel Mahdi's fragile government, nearly a year since he came to power.
Innumerable examples of scenes like this from across France, accompanied with extreme police violence have been aired on social media yet the BBC stoically refuses to report them. Why? GiletsJaunes
