SocietyThe women exposing abuse in Iraq

UN experts say violence against women and girls in Iraq is widespread but under-reported, and there are no official figures for sexual violence. Human rights campaigners say more protection is needed for women who speak out and that threats and incitement against survivors should be investigated as crimes. BBC Arabic’s Sally Nabil spoke in Baghdad with women who say family and social pressures discouraged them from speaking out.
