At least three people were killed, and six more were wounded in recent violence:

Two bodies belonging to Kakai Kurds were discovered in the Khanaqin region hours after they were kidnapped.

A protester died of injuries received yesterday in Basra. Five guards at the Thaar al-Allah Party headquarters were arrested. In response, protesters now want the provincial governor, Assad al-Eidani, to resign.

In Baghdad, six security personnel were wounded in a clash possibly with protesters.

Also, Islamic State members set fire to crops in the Makhmour region.
