We are still losing people everyday. Two days ago, we lost Dalin, pictured on the right. Today, we painfully say goodbye to her sister, Davin, pictured on the left. Davin was an inspiring violin player, and both had promising lives ahead of them. May they rest in peace. 💔

It's disheartening to witness such a tragic incident in Iraq. It highlights systemic corruption and the disregard for safety measures in public spaces. Like we never learnt from Karada explosion or Mosul boat tragedies. Calls for accountability will receive deaf ears as usual.

Today, a devastating fire erupted during a wedding party in Nineveh Province's Alhamdabya district in Iraq, resulting in over 150 deaths and hundreds of injuries. This heartbreaking incident sheds light on Iraq's alarming lack of safety measures. Notably, there are no fire extinguishers in public places or wedding halls across the country. This tragedy underscores the failure of Iraqi governments over the past two decades in everything except corruption. It's a stark call for immediate safety reforms and responsible governance. #Support_Thevictims_Alhamdanya_fire

“The US didn't simply turn a blind eye to Azerbaijan’s attempts to impose its will on Artsakh through starvation & force—it emboldened & legitimized Azerbaijan's coercive diplomacy by refusing to hold it accountable." @geviskajyan & @algalitsky in @TIME. time.com/6316001/us-failures…

Honoring and remembering those we have lost to genocide and other mass atrocities today and always. Proud to use my capacity as an elected official to bring awareness to issues impacting the Assyrian community.
