Here is a workaround:

1. Open /usr/share/libgweather/Locations.xml as an Administrator using
gedit or your other favorite text editor.

2. Find the following text:

    <country>
      
      <name>Iraq</name>
      
      <iso-code>IQ</iso-code>
      <fips-code>IZ</fips-code>
      <timezones>
        <timezone id="Asia/Baghdad"/>
      </timezones>
      <tz-hint>Asia/Baghdad</tz-hint>
     </country>

3. Insert the following just between <tx-hint>Asia/Baghdad</tz-hint> and
</country>:

     <city>
        
        <name>Baghdad</name>
        <coordinates>29.561111 34.951667</coordinates>
        <location>
          <name>Baghdad International Air</name>
          <code>SDA</code>
          <coordinates>33.318279 44.416667</coordinates>
        </location>
      </city>

4. Save the file.

This will give you at least Baghdad and gnome-clocks will display the
correct time and allow you to find the city in the list.  Others can be
created and inserted as needed.  I am also adding the XML Iraq entry  in
my location file as an attachment in case the text does not display
correctly above when posted.

** Attachment added: "Location information for Baghdad"

  In Hardy, if you edit your locations and click Add, Iraq is neither
  listed under Middle East nor Asia. Even a search for the keyword
  "Iraq" yields no results.
