Baghdad: The Islamic country of Iraq is now witnessing a situation similar to that of Sri Lanka. Angry protesters occupied the parliament building in the capital Baghdad on Wednesday. According to media reports, most of the protesters are supporters of Iraqi Shia leader Muqtada al-Sadr. Protesters are protesting against the Iran-backed party's bid for prime minister Mohammad Shia al-Sudani, a former minister and former provincial governor.

Protesters entered Baghdad's high-security Green Zone, government buildings and the home of diplomatic missions on Wednesday. After that, they entered the Parliament. However, at that time, no MP was present in Parliament. According to media reports, only security personnel were present inside the Parliament building at that time and they allowed protesters inside easily. The protesters also carried photographs of Shia leader al-Sadr on Wednesday. Police first resorted to water canons to drive away protesters who had demolished cement walls.  

According to the report, the police were deployed at the main gate to stop the crowd, but a crowd of protesters started gathering at the two entrances of the green zone, after which they broke open the cement wall installed by the police and shouted: "Al-Sudani, Out!". The protesters arrived here from several cities in Iraq.
