Majed explained that the protesters in Iraq launched the “Iraqi National Step” campaign, which aims to transfer the protests to the Jordanian borders and from there to the Palestinian borders, in solidarity with the Palestinian people in their just cause.

The head of the Iraqi Journalists Syndicate, Moayad Al-Lami, said, “Iraq will remain in all its greatness and pride and will not abandon its brothers in Palestine despite all of its wounds,” calling on God to protect the people of Gaza and all of Palestine from “systematic death.”

Iraq will remain in all its greatness and pride and will not abandon its brothers in Palestine despite all of its surgeries. Oh God, protect our people in Gaza and all of Palestine from systematic death because they have no helper after the parents, guardians, and peers abandoned them.

As for the Iraqi novelist Ahmed Saadawi, he wrote on Twitter, “The survival of something called the Palestinian cause while we are in the third millennium is a shame on the forehead of humanity, international organizations and great countries that boast of human rights and universal values.”

The survival of something called the “Palestinian cause” while we are in the third millennium is a shame for humanity, international organizations, and superpowers that boast of human rights and universal values.
A cause that crushes the Palestinian people under the weight of the occupation machine and is trafficked by those who claim to have adopted it.

For its part, the Doctors Syndicate in Iraq sent calls to 4 Arab and Palestinian parties to provide facilities for joining Iraqi volunteer doctors to treat the wounded and provide the necessary services in the Gaza Strip, which has been under constant Israeli bombardment for more than a week.

The Syndicate directed its statement, issued on Monday, to 4 parties, namely, the Arab Doctors Union, the Palestinian Ministry of Health, the Palestinian Medical Association and the Palestinian Red Crescent Society.

She said, “Iraqi doctors have initiated requests for volunteering in the medical effort to treat our people in Gaza to participate in rescue work and treat the wounded in the hospitals in the Gaza Strip as desired by the health authorities, and are waiting for transportation and locating workplaces. At the same time, private Iraqi hospitals associated with the Syndicate have pledged to receive and treat the wounded referred to them.” Iraq is of the highest level of care and attention. “

Officially, Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kazemi affirmed Iraq’s rejection and condemnation of the Israeli aggression against the defenseless Palestinians in Jerusalem and Gaza.
