Chanting slogans against the United States and Israel, the crowd condemned the unrest in neighboring Iran.

Participants were seen carrying flags and portraits of prominent Shia figures, including Iraq’s top religious authority, Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, and Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
