Baghdad and elsewhere, the ICRC rushed emergency supplies to medical facilities. This is an update on these and other ICRC activities carried out in Iraq in August 2009.</p> <h3>Overview</h3> <div style="border-right: lightgrey 1px solid; padding-right: 5px; border-top: lightgrey 1px solid; padding-left: 5px; float: right; padding-bottom: 5px; margin: 5px 0px 5px 15px; border-left: lightgrey 1px solid; width: 360px; padding-top: 5px; border-bottom: lightgrey 1px solid"> <p>Help the victims of war: make a donation to the ICRC today</p> <p>"The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) relies on everyone’s commitment to the humanitarian cause and its underlying values. The strongest possible support from individuals, companies and foundations is essential if we are to meet the challenges we are currently facing. Your support to ICRC is more than just a donation – it is a true act of humanity. Thank you". <b>Jakob Kellenberger, President of the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127061134/http://www.icrc.org/web/eng/siteeng0.nsf/html/home!Open" target="_blank" class="external">ICRC</a></b></p> <p><a title="Donate to the International Committee of the Red Cross" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127061134/http://www.icrc.org/web/forms/webforms.nsf/F_DON?OpenForm&ParentUNID=F560E328F1874210C12570DD003BAFBE" target="_blank" class="external">Yes! I want to make a difference by donating online now</a></p> </p></div> <p>Over the month of August, hundreds of people paid the price for indiscriminate attacks in many parts of the country. Baghdadis were shocked by a wave of massive blasts that rocked the capital, leaving behind hundreds of civilian casualties in addition to major property losses. </p> <p>"The level of insecurity in Iraq remains high and should not be accepted as somehow ‘normal’ or unavoidable," said Juan-Pedro Schaerer, head of the ICRC delegation for Iraq. In the governorates of Baghdad, Ninewa and Diyala, many Iraqis live in constant fear for their lives whenever they leave their houses, as anyone could be hit simply by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. </p> <p>To help medical facilities cope with the influx of wounded people, around nine tonnes of surgical materials and other medical supplies were delivered to Baghdad Teaching Hospital in Baghdad governorate, to Mosul General Hospital, Hamdaniya General Hospital and Bartilla primary health-care centre in Ninewa governorate, and to Dohuk Emergency Hospital in Dohuk governorate.</p> <h3>Helping families obtain information about their relatives missing since the 1990-1991 Gulf War</h3> <p>Hundreds of thousands of families in Iraq are longing to obtain news of those who vanished in the armed conflicts of recent decades. The authorities concerned must do everything in their power, in accordance with international humanitarian law, to clarify what happened to those who went missing in armed conflicts and to provide the families with any information they obtain. </p> <p>The Technical Sub-Committee of the Tripartite Commission, investigating cases of persons missing in connection with the 1990-1991 Gulf War, held its 61st session in August in Kuwait. The meeting was chaired by the ICRC and attended by the Commission’s members: Iraq, Kuwait and the Coalition (France, Saudi Arabia, the United Kingdom and the United States). The members reiterated their commitment to take every possible measure to fulfil their obligations and provide information that could explain what happened to those who went missing. In particular, they took steps that are likely to lead to the exhumation of sites that have been identified in Iraq and Kuwait. </p> <h3>Visiting detainees and helping them to maintain contact with their families</h3> <p>The ICRC regularly visits detention facilities to monitor treatment and conditions of detention. In August, ICRC delegates visited detainees:</p> <ul> <li>in US custody in Taji and Remembrance II, both in Baghdad Governorate; </li> <li>held in Tobji Juvenile Detention Facility (Baghdad Governorate) under the authority of the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs, in Khalis Police Station (Diyala Governorate) under the authority of the Ministry of Interior, and in Fort Suse Federal Prison (Suleimaniya governorate) under the authority of the Ministry of Justice; </li> <li>in 10 prisons in Erbil, Dohuk and Suleimaniya governorates under the authority of the Ministry of Social Affairs and various security forces in northern Iraq, including Assayesh. </li> </ul> <p>The ICRC helps the detainees and their families to keep in touch by exchanging Red Cross messages, which are collected and distributed in cooperation with the Iraqi Red Crescent Society, and by providing financial support enabling families to travel to Basra, in the southern part of the country, to visit relatives detained in Camp Bucca. In August, more than 300 detainees were visited by their relatives and almost 4,750 Red Cross messages were exchanged within Iraq and with other countries. </p> <p>Also in August, the ICRC helped eight foreign detainees released from Rusafa Prison in Baghdad to contact their respective embassies or the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to arrange for their return to their home countries. The ICRC directly facilitated the repatriations of a Bangladeshi, a Sudanese and a Palestinian, all of whom wanted to return home. </p> <h3>Support for limb-fitting centres</h3> <p>In addition to medical assistance provided for health facilities, the ICRC also supports 11 limb-fitting and rehabilitation centres run by the Iraqi Ministry of Health by providing equipment and training. In August, the ICRC awarded three-year scholarships to two Iraqis for training in prosthetics and orthotics, raising the number of scholarships granted to seven.</p> <h3>Delivering aid to displaced and otherwise vulnerable people</h3> <p>In August, the ICRC gave food parcels, rice bags, hygiene kits and towels sufficient for two months to about 15,600 internally displaced people (IDPs) – mainly families headed by women – in Baghdad, Diyala, Salah Al Din, Dohuk and Erbil governorates. </p> <p>The ICRC also provides support for income-generating and livelihood projects that enable communities to regain economic self-sufficiency. For example, more than 2,000 workers are supporting their families on the income they receive repairing and cleaning irrigation canals in Diyala, Erbil and Kirkuk governorates under a cash-for-work programme. </p> <p>In Kirkuk governorate, the ICRC vaccinated more than 21,700 sheep and 5,850 goats against pox. These animals provide an income for some 1,000 people.</p> <h3>Providing clean water</h3> <p>ICRC water engineers continued to repair and otherwise improve water infrastructure. In August, the ICRC:</p> <ul> <li>completed repair work on Al Wathba water treatment plant in Baghdad, serving around 100,000 people; </li> <li>installed a new submersible pump on the Korez bore well in Khanaqin town and connected it to the water network, thereby increasing the water supply for 660 residents; </li> <li>cleaned and sterilized the storage tanks and repaired the operating theatre at Al Sadr Teaching Hospital in Najaf, which has 400 beds and serves around 546,000 inhabitants of Najaf city and nearby villages; </li> <li>finished building Al Resalah primary health-care centre, which can treat around 50 people per day and serves around 25,000 people in Wassit governorate; </li> <li>repaired two incinerators at Basra General Hospital, which has 600 beds; </li> <li>increased the pumping capacity, re-operated the filters and replaced the chemical treatment units and electromechanical works in New Tikrit Stage II water treatment plant in Salah Al-Din governorate, which provides water for around 80,000 people; </li> <li>finished building an emergency unit for al Hashimiyah Hospital, which has more than 100 beds, in Babil governorate; </li> <li>repaired the water treatment plant in Mandali, Diyala governorate, improving the quality of water provided for around 20,000 people, and covered the X-ray room in Mandali’s primary health-care centre with lead protection sheets, in addition to carrying out electrical work there. </li> </ul> <p><strong>Water was delivered by truck to:</strong> <ul> <li>4,500 displaced people, Al Imam Ali General Hospital and eight primary health-care centres in Sadr City, Al Kindi General Hospital, Al Yarmouk Teaching Hospital, and Al Rashad Psychiatry Teaching Hospital, all in Baghdad. </li> </ul> <h3>Promoting international humanitarian law</h3> <p>Reminding parties to a conflict of their obligation to protect civilians is a fundamental part of the ICRC’s work. The organization also endeavours to promote international humanitarian law within civil society. Within this framework, a series of presentations was organized for various audiences all over Iraq. </p> <p>Iraq is the ICRC’s second biggest operation worldwide, with more than 90 expatriates and around 530 national staff in Baghdad, Basra, Najaf, Erbil, Suleimaniya, Dohuk, Ramadi and Khanaqin responding to the urgent needs of civilians adversely affected by the conflict.</p>

However, widespread violence and a lack of respect for human life continue to affect the Iraqi people. Despite the decrease in the number of deaths and injuries this year compared with 2006 and 2007, violence remains a feature of everyday life. Now the concern is that people in Iraq and elsewhere may come to accept this high level of insecurity as somehow "normal" and unavoidable.</p> <p>Currently, about 500 people are killed on average every month and 2,000 wounded in mass explosions and indiscriminate attacks occurring mainly in Baghdad, Ninewa and Diyala governorates. Civilians are the primary victims of these incidents, which create a general sense of insecurity as anyone could be hit simply by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Women fear for themselves and their families every time they leave their homes to go to the market or accompany their children to school. Businesses are regularly destroyed or severely damaged in indiscriminate attacks, often leaving many families without their only source of income.</p> <p>International humanitarian law is designed to limit the effects of armed conflict and to protect those who are not or no longer participating in the fighting – an aim central to the four international treaties known as the Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949, which were adopted exactly 60 years ago today. This anniversary is an occasion to remember that a distinction must always be drawn between combatants and those taking no part in hostilities. <br/>Through the testimonies presented here Iraqi men and women explain how recent events have affected them and their families. These harrowing stories show that the current security situation and the resulting humanitarian needs still leave many Iraqi men and women uncertain about their future.</p> <p>We would like to seize the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Geneva Conventions to stress that the basic rules of the law of armed conflict remain as important as ever and that Iraqi civilians must be spared the effects of hostilities. If that were to happen, there would be much less suffering.</p> <ul> <li>Update of <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127061134/http://www.icrc.org/web/eng/siteeng0.nsf/html/home!Open" target="_blank" class="external">ICRC</a> activities in Iraq for July 2009 in boxed section below: </li> </ul> </blockquote> <p>Source: International Committe of Red Cross (<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127061134/http://www.icrc.org/web/eng/siteeng0.nsf/html/home!Open" target="_blank" class="external">ICRC</a>) Field Newsletter <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130127061134/http://www.icrc.org/web/eng/siteeng0.nsf/htmlall/iraq-newsletter-120809" class="external" target="_blank">Iraq: civilians without protection</a></p> <div style="border-right: lightgrey 1px solid; padding-right: 5px; border-top: lightgrey 1px solid; padding-left: 5px; padding-bottom: 5px; margin: 15px auto; border-left: lightgrey 1px solid; width: 95%; padding-top: 5px; border-bottom: lightgrey 1px solid"> <blockquote> <h3>13-08-2009  Operational update Iraq: helping the victims of bombings</h3> <p>The ICRC responded to urgent needs arising from indiscriminate attacks that claimed the lives of hundreds of civilians in July, and carried out other humanitarian activities for detainees and the civilian population. This is an update on ICRC activities in Iraq in July 2009. </p> <h4>Overview </h4> <p>Violence against civilians again made headlines during the month of July. A series of severe bombings took place, mainly in Baghdad and the central part of Iraq. The ICRC remains concerned about indiscriminate attacks against civilians. </p> <p>The organization responded to these attacks by assisting the hospitals that treated most of the injured. Around 12 tonnes of medical materials were delivered to Al Hamdaniya General Hospital, Al Jumhoury Teaching Hospital, Al Salam General Hospital, Talafar General Hospital and Al Mosul General Hospital (Ninewa governorate), Dohuk Emergency Hospital (Dohuk governorate) and Khanaqin General Hospital (Diyala Governorate). </p> <p>Working with Iraqi Red Crescent Society, the ICRC also distributed hygiene kits and kitchen sets to 900 people affected by the explosion that hit the Shorija quarter of Kirkuk. </p> <h4>Visiting detainees and helping them to maintain contact with their families </h4> <p>The ICRC regularly visits detention facilities to monitor treatment and conditions of detention. In July, ICRC delegates visited detainees: </p> <ul> <li>in Harithiya Prison (Baghdad governorate) under the joint authority of the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Defence, in Rusafa Prison and Kadhimya Maximum Security Prison (both in Baghdad governorate) and in Fort Suse (Suleimaniya governorate), all under the authority of the Ministry of Justice, as well as in Al Karkh Juvenile Detention Facility (Baghdad governorate) under the authority of the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs; </li> <li>in five prisons in Erbil, Dohuk and Suleimaniya governorates. </li> </ul> <p>Many families braved the harsh summer heat and sand storms that hit the country to make the long journey to Camp Bucca, where nearly 1,250 detainees received visits from their relatives in July. The visits were made possible thanks to financial support the families are receiving from the ICRC. </p> <p>Families and their detained relatives also used Red Cross messages, collected and distributed by the ICRC and the Iraqi Red Crescent, to stay in touch. In July, more than 17,500 Red Cross messages were exchanged within Iraq and with relatives in other countries. </p> <h4>Providing clean water </h4> <p>The water levels of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers decreased dramatically, setting off alarm bells and leading to water shortages. The drought that has affected the country in recent years has also had a severe impact on the population. The ICRC continues to support improvements to water infrastructure to ensure better access to safe water. In July, it: </p> <ul> <li>upgraded the water storage capacity of Al Rashad Psychiatric Hospital in Sadr City, Baghdad, which has 1,300 beds; </li> <li>cleaned the water storage tanks and carried out repair work to improve the electricity supply and the operating theatre at Al Sadr Teaching Hospital, which has 426 beds; </li> <li>repaired the water supply of Al Jumhury Teaching Hospital in Mosul, which has 850 beds; </li> <li>completed a drought response project providing water to around 5,000 people in five villages who saw their water source disappear as a result of the drought in Aqra district, in Dohuk governorate; </li> <li>repaired and expanded the Bazwaya primary health-care centre in Ba’asheka sub-district, in Ninewa governorate. The project doubled the capacity of the centre, which can receive now an average of 100 patients per day. The centre serves the 14,000 inhabitants of the villages of Bazwaya and Al Mouafaqiya, and is the nearest health-care facility for around 3,000 internally displaced families living in the Five Forts camp; </li> <li>repaired two incinerators in Basra General Hospital, which has a capacity of 600 beds; </li> <li>improved the quality of the water supplied by the Samara Water Treatment Plant, in Salah Eddin governorate; </li> <li>completed the Senik Quarter water supply project in Mala Omar village, in Erbil governorate, as well as a project in Khanaqin town to repair three wells supplying water to 6,600 people; </li> <li>provided a new caravan, with a women’s consultation section, a pharmacy and two toilets, for the health-care centre in Al Rahma settlement, in Najaf governorate. Around 24,000 people benefit from the services of this centre. </li> </ul> <p>Water was delivered by truck to: <ul> <li>Qalawa Quarter camp in Suleimaniya, hosting around 360 internally displaced people; </li> <li>4,500 displaced people and eight primary health-care centres in Sadr City, Al Kindi General Hospital, Al Yarmouk Teaching Hospital, Al Imam Ali General Hospital and Al Rashad Psychiatry Teaching Hospital, all in Baghdad. </li> </ul> <h4>Promoting international humanitarian law </h4> <p>A series of presentations was organized for various audiences as part of the ICRC’s activities to promote international humanitarian law and raise awareness of the organization’s mandate and activities in Iraq.</p> </blockquote> <p>Source: 13-08-2009  <a

ثلاثمائة معتقل اكثر من ثلثهم من ابناء التيار الصدري، بدأوا الاحد اضرابا عاما عن الطعام بسبب سوء الاوضاع التي يعانون منها في سجن الرصافة اضافة لعمليات الابتزاز التي يتعرضون لها من اجل اطلاق سراحهم". </p> <p>واشارالعبيدي الى ضغوط على المعتقلين لوقف الاضراب </p> <p>" قامت لجنة من وزارة الداخلية بزيارة السجن ومطالبة المعتقلين بوقف الاضراب لكن المعتقلين رفضوا ذلك ما دفع مسؤولي السجن للتعامل بشكل اسوء معهم . وقد تعرض ما بين 10 الى 15 معتقلا الى الاغماء بسبب الجوع". </p> <p>بدوره، اعلن الناطق باسم قيادة عمليات بغداد اللواء قاسم عطا عن توجه اربعة قضاة للمعتقل لمراجعة ملفات المعتقلين، مؤكدا في الوقت ذاته وجود احتجاج في سجن قيادة عمليات الرصافة. </p> <p>" زارت لجنة من حقوق الانسان لليوم الثاني على التوالي سجن قيادة عمليات الرصافة، والتقت عددا من الموقوفين واستمعت الى اقوالهم . كما ارسل مجلس القضاء الاعلى وبالتنسيق مع قيادة عمليات بغداد اربعة قضاة اليوم الى المعتقل لغرض الاطلاع على ملفات التحقيق وطلبوا الاسراع بانجاز ملفات المعتقلين ". </p> <p>واشار عطا الى ان "اللجان والقضاة ارسلوا على خلفية احتجاج المعتقلين لتاخير انجاز ملفاتهم".</p> </p></div> </div> </div> <hr/> <div class="navigation"> <div class="alignleft"></div> <div class="alignright"></div> </div> </div> <div id="sidebar"
