Iraqi police used combat bullets and tear gas to disperse a protest in Baghdad.
Special forces are mobilized in the capital. Authorities shut down the Internet for several days.
Protest was held because of the unemployment, corruption and lack of social services in the country. The demonstrations in Iraq began on October 1.
A report by the State Investigative Committee of Iraq says that 157 people were killed in demonstrations as a result of excessive force by law enforcers.
