The 2022 Baghdad clashes was a civil conflict that broke out between supporters of Iraqi politician Muqtada al-Sadr and pro-Iranian forces, following Sadr's announcement of his resignation from politics.[2] The move came after the resignation of Grand Ayatollah Kadhim Al-Haeri, the leader of his Iran-based Sadrist movement, which Sadr believed wasn't of his own volition.[3] The unrest was considered the most serious crisis in the country since the defeat of ISIL in the country in 2017, since which Iraq has had relative stability.[4] The clashes left at least 30 people dead and 700 more injured, including 110 members of the security forces.[1]
