ERBIL (Kurdistan24) - In a troubling development, seven suicides have been reported in Iraq over the past 72 hours, highlighting a growing mental health crisis among the population.

Iraqi security agencies attribute this surge to the overwhelming mental fatigue caused by ongoing social, financial, and political crises.

Experts are urgently calling for the establishment of awareness and counseling centers to address the increasing suicide rates.

They emphasize the need for more attention from both the government and non-governmental organizations towards providing psychological support to the population.
