Since the beginning of Israel’s attack on Lebanon, and especially the Friday killing of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut, the mood in Iraq has been one of anger and mourning.
30-year-old Imad Qusay Abbas, from the Nineveh Plain to the north-east of Mosul in northern Iraq, said he received the news of Nasrallah’s killing on his return from a solidarity vigil for the victims of Israeli aggression across the region organised by the Iran-backed Iraqi armed group, Kata’ib Sayyid al-Shuhada (KSS).
