“The duty of the security forces is to protect the demonstrators, protect public and private property, prevent any security breaches and stop the actions of intruders who are trying to destabilize security using circumstances,” the Defense Ministry said in a statement.

During the riots and clashes, more than 100 people, including the military, were injured. The protesters oppose the nomination of Iraqi Prime Minister Muhammad al-Sudani, demand the dissolution of the legislature and the creation of a transitional government.
