On this #WorldRefugeeDay we honor the unwavering resilience of Iraqi refugees. Millions have sought refuge, escaping conflict and displacement. Their strength fuels our collective determination to create a world where no one is deemed illegal, and solidarity surpasses borders.

One of the oldest things that has remained standing in #Iraq is the Lion of Babylon - a basalt statue depicting a lion standing over a lying human. It once featured a saddle that held up a statue of Ishtar - the goddess of fertility, love and war. What can be more Iraqi?

In torrential rain, 65,000 fans filled Basra stadium. They were there hours before kick-off, chanting for #Iraq. Women and men. Children and elders. The big screen showed lovers hugging and a fan breaking into Kurdish dance to celebrate Iraq’s win. That is the magic of football.

This is Basra. Most have heard of it lately as a host of football's Gulf Cup. Basra is #Iraq's second largest city and is known as a port steeped in music, writing and poetry. It has been destroyed by many wars and its people deserve all the love the city is getting.
