The Iraqi Academics Syndicate has decided to cancel the central celebration for Iraqi Academic Day, in respect and reverence for the blood of the martyrs of Iraq who fell due to the Zionist and American aggression.

The syndicate confirmed that this decision expresses the solidarity of the academic community with the people of Iraq in these painful circumstances, stemming from a strong sense of national and humanitarian responsibility that necessitates standing with the pains of the homeland.

The head of the Iraqi Academics Syndicate, Dr. Ali Maseer Yassin, pointed out that academics in Iraq represent an active segment of society, and they are an integral part of its fabric, affected by the challenges it faces, and standing by their people in various crises.

While highlighting his deep pride in the esteemed position of university professors and their pivotal role in shaping generations, he affirmed that canceling the central celebration does not diminish the significance of the occasion, but rather reflects a deep sense of belonging and loyalty to the sacrifices of the nation’s sons.

The head of the syndicate also called for recalling values of unity and solidarity during this phase, standing together in support of the homeland, while praying to God Almighty to embrace the martyrs with His vast mercy, grant a speedy recovery to the wounded, and protect Iraq and its people from all harm
