The assistant director of the Immigration Department in Najaf, Haider Abdul-Kadhim Abbas, said that “the number of families that were displaced to the province after 2014, reached 14,475, about 95 percent of them are from Nineveh, and the rest are from the provinces of Salah al-Din and Diyala, in addition to the Jurf al-Nasr district.”
