Description
Iraqis in the holy city of Najaf visit the graves of their relatives at the Wadi al-Salam ("Valley of Peace") cemetery to mourn their dead as it is tradition for Muslims to mark the Festival of Sacrifice. "This is the blessed day of Eid al-Adha but frankly Iraqis are not in a celebratory mood," says Haidar Ali as this year's celebrations were tainted by a deadly suicide bombing at a popular market in the capital Baghdad, in one of Iraq's deadliest such attacks in years.
