Iraqi Prime Minister Releases Anti-Government Protesters

[OANN] The newly appointed prime minister of Iraq, Mustafa al-Kadhimi, carried out one of the first decisions of his administration this week. On Sunday, the country’s judiciary ordered a release of all anti-government protesters who did not partake in violence.

This came after dozens burned tires in renewed protests against the new leadership.

Protests began back in October, when thousands of citizens denounced government corruption and demanded officials to be held accountable.
