Large fires burned in Basra, Iraq, on the night of September 5 as demonstrators rallied against the killing of six protesters over the past two days of demonstrations.
Al Arabiya reported protesters had set fire to municipal buildings in Basra. It was not clear at the time of writing which buildings were set on fire.
Basra has been rocked by unrest for months, amid anger over problems with the water supply, infrastructure, and lack of economic opportunity in the oil-rich Iraqi province. Credit: Ali Mohammedawi via Storyful
