Parliament Speaker Mohamed al-Halbousi greeted the Iraqi people and the Arab and Islamic worlds over Muslim's Eid al-Fitr (Feast of Breaking the Fast) set to start in the evening of Tuesday.

Halbousi, who attends his first Eid as the parliament speaker of Iraq, expressed hope that all the displaced citizens will return to their areas of residence, and that his country achieves stability and undergoes reconstruction after being liberated from the terrorism grip.

Iraq declared victory over ISIS in December, 2017, during the term of former Prime Minister Haidar al-Abadi. However, various provinces in Iraq, including the capital, have witnessed many terrorist attacks.
