Increasing executions in Iraq has sparked international concerns. The Iraqi government’s use of the death penalty has increased despite international condemnation. According to a report wired by Agence France Presse, in 2013 along 169 people were sent to the gallows, which is the country’s highest such figure since the 2003 US-led invasion. These statistics place the Iraq third in the world behind just China and Iran.
