Baghdad : The Iraqi government has decided to lift the curfew in Baghdad as of Monday morning, the operations command of the Baghdad Law Enforcement Plan said Sunday evening.
The decision takes effect as of 6am Monday, a senior police officer told KUNA here.
However, the curfew will remain in place as per vehicles only in Al-Shu’la and Al-Kadhemiya districts of Baghdad and the eastern city of Al-Sadr, the source pointed out.
The Iraqi authorities imposed a total curfew across the capital city Thursday evening in an attempt to contain the unrest coinciding with the clashes between the security forces and the Sadrist trend in the southern Iraq areas.
