Young Iraqis Challenge Political System

On November sixth, a new wave of young Iraqi candidates, like twenty-five-year-old Anwar Ibrahim, are challenging the countrys long-standing political system. With about forty percent of registered candidates being young people, this election marks a growing interest among Iraqs youth to shape the countrys future. However, young Iraqis like Ali Abd al-Hussain, a musician, remain skeptical due to past politicians broken promises. Despite facing stiff resistance, young candidates are joining existing political blocs, hoping to enact change from within and potentially pave the way for a new Iraq.
