The picture shows us when ISIS forces were marking homes of Iraqi Christian people with the letter N which means "Christian" in Arabic, as well as the militias in the city of Najaf, in southern Iraq, pursuing and killing activists who are different politically and ideologically with them.

I don’t know if it is interesting for you to know, but I would like to underline a curious fact. On October 11the Italian prestigious agency Agenzia Nova, quoting the Iraqi electoral commission, reported data about elections in Iraq writing that the average of expressed votes stayed between 12 and 25%: Salah al Din 25 %, Diyala 22 %, Al Anbar 21%, Al Muthanna, Bassora and Babil 20%, Ninive 19%, Maysan 18,5%, Erbil, Dhi Qar, Wasit and Karbala 18%, Al Diwaniyah 17%, Sulaymaniyah 15%, Najaf 12 % (https://www.nova.news/iraq-alta-commissione-elettorale-annuncia-chiusura-urne-svolgimento-elezioni-senza-brogli/). Reuters, just a little later, published an average of 41% (https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/polls-open-iraq-general-election-state-tv-2021-10-10/). Something not investigable occurred in a little time?
