The protesters called on the US and the United Nations to honor their promise to station blue helmet troops at Camp Liberty to protect the residents who have come under repeated attacks by Iraqi forces.

On occasion of the first anniversary of this crime against humanity in Camp Ashraf, the participants set up an exhibition of photos of the Camp Ashraf victims,52 members of the People’s Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK) murdered.

Many of the victims were executed while their hands were tied behind their backs, others while receiving treatment in the camp’s medical centre.

The participants also asked the UN and US to take action to free the seven residents taken hostage by the Iraqi forces.

Similar protests were held in other cities in North America and Europe.
