Members of Iraq's security forces take part in early voting for the parliamentary elections in the northern city of Basra, on October 8, 2021. More than 25 million Iraqis are eligible to vote for a new parliament on October 10, in the fifth such vote since a US-led invasion toppled dictator Saddam Hussein in 2003. A total of 329 seats are up for grabs in the election, which was moved forward from 2022 as a concession to youth-led pro-democracy protests that erupted in late 2019.
