The 37th anniversary of the Anfal massacre.

The Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia' al-Sudani has reaffirmed that the Anfal campaign exposed the crimes and racism of the former regime against the Kurdish people.

In a message shared via his official social media accounts, the Iraqi Prime Minister wrote:

"Iraqis remember with sorrow the atrocities committed by the former regime during the notorious Anfal campaign, and the brutal massacres inflicted upon our Kurdish brothers and sisters 37 years ago."

He continued: "That appalling crime revealed the true, ugly nature of the regime and its racist policies towards our people and the patriotic forces within the nation."

The Prime Minister emphasised that today, brotherhood and peaceful coexistence prevail over the seeds of hatred that Saddam Hussein’s Ba’athist regime once tried to sow among Iraq’s diverse communities.

He concluded by saying: "Tyranny has been consigned to the dark pages of history, while Iraqis continue forward—united in building a secure, stable, and prosperous Iraq. May God’s mercy and forgiveness be upon the martyrs of Anfal, and all the martyrs of Iraq."
