The Iraqi House of Representatives intends to hold an urgent exceptional session to discuss the severe repercussions of the pollution in the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, in response to reports warning of worsening negative impacts on public health, aquatic life, and the agricultural sector. Specialized parliamentary committees are preparing to host officials from the Ministry of Environment and related authorities to determine the root causes behind the unprecedented rise in pollutant levels discharged into the rivers. The upcoming session aims to establish a roadmap and phased solutions to reduce the discharge of sewage and industrial waste, amid warnings that water pollution has become the country's most prominent environmental challenge, requiring strict governmental and legislative intervention to ensure water security and protect the ecosystem from collapse.
