More killings to Iraqi Federation of Trade Unions (IFTU) leaders happened in Baghdad late in February. The ICEM condemns these cowardly acts and expresses support and sincere condolences to the IFTU. On 18 February, Ali Hassan Abd (Abu Fahad), a leader of the Oil and Gas Workers’ Union at Baghdad’s Al Doura refinery, was shot and killed in front of his young children outside his home. On 24 February, gunmen attacked and killed Ahmed Adris Abass of IFTU affiliate Transport and Communications Union in Martyr’s Square.
