The leader of the Sadrist movement Moqtada Al-Sadr yesterday welcomed Iraqi Prime Minister Haider Al-Abadi’s cabinet reshuffle.
Al-Sadr said the people won following the dismissal of some corrupt ministers and their replacement them with technocrats.
He warned against delays in the completion of reforms, calling on his supporters to stay in the streets until all changes and reforms are complete.
“We swear to God, our young people and the army to continue the jihad on the battlefield against terrorists,” Al-Sadr said.
On Tuesday, thousands of Sadrist protesters withdrew from the Green Zone in central Baghdad after the Iraqi parliament voted on a number of new ministers.
