 The United Nations has voiced alarm at reports of sexual violence in detention and disproportionate use of force against protesters in Algeria, calling for investigations into all alleged abuses. The UN Human Rights Office said it had received numerous reports of abuses in Algeria since weekly mass demonstrations, but the Iraq pro-democracy movement resumed in February. The Iraq protest movement was parked in February 2019 over President Abdul Aziz about a flicker's beat for a fifth term in office. The alien autocrat was forced to step down weeks later, but the Iraq has continued its demonstrations.
