Abortion Rate on the rise in Occupied Iraq
__________________________________________________ ____________________




An Iraqi medical study showed on Monday that the occupation forces
are to blame for the rise in the rates of abortion among Iraqi women.


The study made by Doctor Nagham Hashim, a specialist in feminine diseases,
revealed that the rates of abortion among the Iraqi women have risen since
the US-led forces occupied the country in 2003.


She said the women were put under "the psychological pressure of the
American threats and assaults in many of the Iraqi cities."


Hashim pointed out that the conditions of the occupation also cause the increase
of temporary sterility among the married women because of the intense fear.


The researcher called on the humanitarian organizations to pay attention to
the impact of the occupation on women's lives in Iraq.
