Al-Sadr singing the national anthem on the eve of the millionth demonstration .. The hour of independence has come

The leader of the Sadrist movement in Iraq, Muqtada Al-Sadr, called on his supporters to participate widely in the demonstrations calling for the removal of American forces from Iraq. It is scheduled to start tomorrow in the Karrada district of Baghdad.

In a tweet on his account on the social networking site "Twitter", Sadr said, "The hour of independence and sovereignty has come, so do you love the country?" He added, "O fans of the country, come to support the adored, for he is crying out for you."

He wrote to his followers, "Promise an independent Iraq that is ruled by the righteous. There is no corruption in it nor invaders, for lovers remove tyrants."

Media reports spoke about the return of al-Sadr to Najaf, south of Baghdad, from Iran to participate in the millionth demonstration.

The parties supporting the demonstration have identified Al-Hassanein Square in Al-Karrada neighborhood, near one of the entrances to the Green Zone, to organize the demonstration, which will be launched tomorrow morning, amid tight security measures.

It is expected that this evening, roads will be closed and forces deployed in traffic intersections and streets near the demonstration site will be prepared for the passage of participants, several kilometers away from the gatherings of other anti-government demonstrators in Tahrir Square in central Baghdad.
