Iraqi Protesters, Police Clash Again



BAGHDAD (Dispatches) – Dozens of Iraqi protesters again clashed with security forces in Baghdad Monday, a day after a rally marked the first anniversary of the start of nationwide mass demonstrations over their living conditions. Police fired stun grenades and tear gas at protesters who were burning tires and hurling rocks on the Al-Jumhuriyah bridge across the Tigris River, an AFP photographer reported.  Thousands of Iraqis took to the streets nationwide on Sunday to mark the first anniversary of the 2019 demonstrations.
