Description

Memorial Day And his badge On this day, the Iraqis observed a minute of silence, in honor of the souls of the Iraqi martyrs detained by Iran. It was eight in the morning, the end of the official working hours for government departments and schools in Iraq, when traffic and trade stopped. Men salute, bells ring, mosques say “Allahu Akbar,” military sirens sound, and movement stops. Everywhere for three minutes, the national television broadcast stops. The Iraqi flag is on the screen alone with the funeral music, and the buildings, cars, and markets are covered with the Iraqi flag, and the page of the martyr is waving, and it is a sad day, without joy, without joy, without music. “Martyrs are more honorable than all of us.”
