Anfal ‘We Don’t Forget’ was the name of the event, it was held on the venue of ‘Amna Suraka’, a notorious security centre in Sulaymaniyah city during the reign of the Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein in the 1970s and 1980s which is now turned into a museum for displaying the crimes and atrocities carried out against innocent civilians. A significant number of people attended the event and several dignitaries read out important speeches.
