Baghdad - INA

The leader of the Shiite National Movement, Sayyid Muqtada al-Sadr, directed, today, Wednesday, to cancel the expected million-man demonstrations in the capital, Baghdad, while he explained that they are of no use after the Zionist attacks in Lebanon and Palestine.

Al-Sadr said in a tweet on the (X) platform - followed by the Iraqi News Agency (INA): "After the Zionist recklessness and terrorism in Palestine and Lebanon, with the public cover of America, and their failure to respond to international resolutions and humanitarian appeals, and their disregard for the voice of the peoples rising up against the systematic Zionist-American terrorism that wants to drag the entire region into a war of extermination.".

He added, "I find it logical to cancel the expected million-man demonstrations, as they are no longer useful after all these Zionist attacks against the peoples," indicating that "the demonstrations are not up to the level of the momentous event."
