Protests Erupt in Iraqi Universities
A number of instructors and staff members at Iraqi universities, including those at the University of Basra, Diyala, Kirkuk, Kufa, Babylon, and Baghdad, staged a protest against the non-payment of their due salaries. This came amidst a worsening financial crisis that has impacted the disbursement of entitlements, promotions, and the calculation of academic qualifications. In some cases, the delay has exceeded 45 days. Protesters threatened to organize open sit-ins if their demands were not met, citing the financial instability affecting their families due to irregular salary payments.
