خط Bayon

Iraq has been rocked by days of protests, as thousands of mostly young men have been demonstrating in different parts of the country against corruption, unemployment and poor public services.

Security forces have responded to the protesters in Iraq using water cannon, tear gas, live rounds and rubber bullets. Scores of protesters have been killed and thousands wounded.

After school, Kamal took the girls to the old house. It was very old and very dirty too. There was rubbish everywhere. The windows were broken and the walls were damp. It was scary.
