Saddam Hussein statues destroyed
Three statues of Saddam Hussein have been destroyed in Kirkuk, the oil-rich city in the north of the country. The destruction of the statues is considered by local residents as the beginning of an internal uprising against Hussein. In 1991, a similar uprising was initiated in southern Iraq when statues of the Iraqi president, spread throughout the country, were secretly destroyed.
