2018/2/8 03:47:44 PM 

The newspaper "New Arab" obtained the latest data from the Iraqi Ministry of Planning for the census in 18 Iraqi provinces, is the number of all governorates, 38 million and 854 thousand people, a census received by the Electoral Commission, for adoption in the distribution of seats in the Iraqi parliament between the provinces.

The census showed a significant increase in Iraq's population of around 40 million by the end of 2017, which observers described as a large population explosion.

The head of the Iraqi Center for Community Studies, Dr. Ali Mahmoud, told the "New Arab" that "the number declared remains a margin of error, because of its reliance on previous data is not updated, as well as political parties intervened in drawing this demographic map, But the Iraqi fabric will remain with its religions and nationalities in general, such as the body recovering from a health problem.
