Sanctions Kill Over 10,000 Iraqis in August
BAGHDAD, September 19 (Xinhua) -- More than 10,000 Iraqi
children and elderly people died last August of different curable
diseases and malnutrition due to the continuation of the
U.N. sanctions, statistics indicate.
The figures released on Sunday by Iraqi Health Ministry showed
that 7,632 Iraqi children aged below five died of diarrhea,
pneumonia and respiratory infections and malnutrition last month,
while only 302 children died in the same month in 1989.
And 2,555 elderly people died of heart disease, diabetes,
hypertension and malignant neoplasms last month, compared to 480
deaths registered in August 1989.
The U.N. imposed harsh economic sanctions on Iraq in August
1990 following its invasion of Kuwait, which touched off the 1991
Gulf War.
The figures show that a total of over 1.18 million Iraqis,
most of them children, have died of various curable diseases and
malnutrition since the imposition of the U.N. sanctions till last
August. Enditem
