UNAMI expresses concern at reports of attacks on Syrian workers in Iraq, welcomes the Iraqi Government’s immediate and urgent actions

UNAMI welcomes the unequivocal condemnation of such attacks by Prime Minister Mr. Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani and commends the Iraqi Government's decision to set up a specialized security team to pursue the perpetrators of such attacks, which infringe on human dignity as well as human rights and violate the applicable Iraqi laws.  

The United Nations Assistance Mission for Iraq (UNAMI) calls on all to abide by the law, exercise wisdom, stay away from hate speech and maintain stability within a secure Iraq that is reconciled with itself and its surrounding.
