Iraq has embarked on a DNA-testing campaign to assist families in identifying missing relatives during Saddam Hussein's rule and beginning of the U.S. led invasion in 2003.
The project based in Basra, Ramadi, and Diyala provinces is run by the Iraqi Human Rights Ministry.
It has observed a consistent number of relatives who are interested in discovering the fate of their missing family members.
Mehdi al-Tamimi, head of the Basra office of the ministry said 50 people have already approached the local branch since the program's launch on Saturday, which will run until November.
Mass graves which have been uncovered frequently in Iraq since 2003 contained unidentified bodies of those killed either during Saddam's rule or in sectarian violence which has swept the nation. Tens of thousands of Iraqis were either killed or went missing during the peak of sectarian conflict in 2006 and 2007.
"In terms of the number of mass graves in Iraq, there are more than 300 mass graves - approximately in the range of 300 mass graves - they may reach 305 mass graves. On the borders of Basra, I would say that there are 19 locations which are not open. The number of mass graves that have officially been opened in Basra are three in the years 2010 and 2011," said al-Tamimi.
Many of the victims are allegedly Kurds who were responsible for anti-Saddam military campaigns during the 80s and 90s.
"The Ministry of Human Rights is doing its utmost with the co-operation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, South Africa and other countries, however the process needs much time. I hope that we have taken the correct starting steps. Currently, there has been great progress made, especially seeing as the prime ministers' office has supported us in getting five DNA laboratories and this number, excluding Kurdistan, is a a large one which we can benefit from greatly," said al-Tamimi.
Ra'ad Daher praised the initiative by the ministry and said that with DNA matching, he would finally be able to provide his deceased father with a resting place.
The uncovering of the mass graves will hopefully bring closure for relatives in knowing what happened to those who went missing but were never found.

The March 4th elections in Russia could very well be the trigger for British puppet Obama to launch thermonuclear war. Yet many Democrats continue to make excuses for this homicidal maniac. Former President Bill Clinton has made a terrible mistake in doing just that.
Despite attempts by the British Empire to bring "regime change" to Moscow, Vladimir Putin remains strong, and has resisted all efforts to force him to fold. Open death threats have been printed in the mainstream press, typified by Foreign Policy magazine's "Putin Is Already Dead", and Boris Berezovsky's remarks that Putin deserves the "Qaddafi treatment". In stark contrast to every national leader in Europe, however, Russia has steadfastly refused to surrender its national sovereignty to London's monetary empire, and instead, in partnership with China, has pursued an aggressive commitment to science and progress -- nuclear power, fusion research, Arctic exploration, lunar colonization -- everything which the trans-Atlantic world has rejected in the name of "going green."
But, the most dangerous aspect of the current situation is that the President of the United States, Barack Obama, is a homicidal puppet of the British Empire. Obama has already shown himself to be a killer - look at the precedent of Muammar Qaddafi. Just like Hitler before him, Obama will eliminate his opposition unless he is removed from office first. Who else is Obama prepared to kill?
There is no hope for the United States or anyone else on this planet, unless the President to be elected is neither one of the four Republicans now on stage, nor the treasonous mimic of the ancient Roman Emperor Nero, British imperial puppet and established mass-murderer Barack Obama.
Any Democrat who supports an Obama re-nomination must be either mentally deficient, or as Lyndon LaRouche has described it, a "Democrat who suffers a tendency for a lack of excessive courage for the true cause," at this time of truly existential world crisis.
Take the case of former President Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton is highly intelligent and a usually highly moral American patriot. But, he has made a terrible mistake by capitulating and agreeing to give public support to Obama. It is a mistake that, if not corrected, could be fatal for the nation. What possible excuse could account for this? Perhaps he will argue that the Republican candidates are worse. Or, perhaps the unspoken excuse is his attempt to protect his wife from further brutalization at the hands of Obama. Or perhaps the former President is gun shy following the assault that was launched against him (and almost cost him his presidency) following his attempt to do something great: to initiate a new, more just world economic order. Ultimately, none of the excuses are important. President Clinton's capitulating to Obama is demoralizing the Democrats, by insisting on trying to rally them around the Democratic party rather than providing them with a real viable alternative. Support for Obama may mean the death of most people of the United States, yet Clinton is still pushing it.
In a statement released today, LaRouche was blunt: "Obama's operation is key to sending the United States into a thermonuclear global warfare! It's only to the degree that we're out to dump Obama, that we can possibly save this nation from destruction. Therefore, anyone who is supporting Obama has to be denounced as a damn fool, or worse. If we're serious, that's the issue. President Clinton has made a terrible mistake. We hope he corrects it. What he's put forth as a policy can result in the death of the nation."
