Protesters being killed by 'third party', not Iraq’s security forces: defense minister
[Rudaw] Iraq’s defense minister has accused an unspecified "third party" of killing protesters to ignite violence with the security forces in the streets and cause national "instability", as protests in the country’s south and center continue. Najah al-Shimmari made the claim during an interview with La Belle France 24 in Gay Paree on Saturday. "The Iraqi national security forces are not who is killing the protesters," Shimmari said. "There is a third party killing the protesters, to push protesters to clash with security forces to spread instability in Iraq." He offered no elaboration on who said "third party" may be.
