Exert pressure on Iraq to stop use of deadly force against peaceful protests.

Petition Details

The UK is a leading global power promoting democracy & human rights. We ask her Majesty’s government to strongly condemn reported use of deadly force against peaceful demonstrations in Iraq, & exert diplomatic pressure on the Iraqi government to stop & investigate these violations now.

Additional Information

More than a week since started, the demonstrations of thousands of young protesters in Iraq, practicing their constitutional right to protest peacefully against corruption, unemployment & poor national services, have been faced with a brutal iron fist by security forces & militias . The reported death toll has exceeded 100 civilian protesters. The internet was shut down & independent TV stations were attacked.
