Iraqis Hold Anti-Occupation Rally
The protest was the greatest popular demonstration in Baghdad in the last two months.
Heads of tribes, women, university students and doctors from different parts of Baghdad were among the protestors.
The demonstrators called on the Iraqi government to condemn the American forces' attacks and stop the occuppiers from any aggression on secure regions.
The mass protest took place in one of the hottest summer days of Iraq. The Iraqi TV announced the weather is 50 degrees high Celsius.
In the last three weeks the American forces have bombarded Sadr city's residential areas and arrested a number of youths on baseless allegations of terrorism.
Bringing tension to Sadr city, the massive attacks have left a number of innocent civilians dead and injured.
