Iraqi security forces are spread heavily around Baghdad's Green Zone, bracing for a new wave of protests tomorrow on the anniversary of Tishreen.
The movement started on Oct. 1, 2019, demanding political reform, the prime minister's resignation, and an end to foreign interference in Iraqi matters. The broad protests in most southern cities, resulting in over 600 dead and thousands wounded, did lead to the resignation of former Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi.
