“Human Rights and Democracy Report” which was published on Thursday, April 21, 2016 by the United Kingdom’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office emphasized the plight of the members of People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI or MEK) in Camp Liberty in Iraq. The “Iraq – in-year update December 2015,” said the overall human rights situation in Iraq remained of grave concern between July and December 2015.
The report indicated the missile attack against Camp Liberty and said:
“On 29 October, rockets were fired at Camp Liberty, a temporary transit location for members of the Mojahedin-e-Khalq, killing 24 residents and injuring others. FCO Minister for the Middle East, Tobias Ellwood, condemned the incident and called on the GOI to bring those responsible to justice. Officials at the British Embassy in Baghdad raised this issue with the Office of the Iraqi Prime Minister to make clear the need for an urgent and comprehensive investigation into the incident. On 11 November, the UK’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN in New York underlined our concerns in the Security Council and to the Iraqi Permanent Representative.”
