			[[Halabja]] is a city in the Kurdistan region of Iraq, historically significant for its role in the Kurdish struggle for autonomy and its tragic experience during the Iran-Iraq War. The city has been a focal point of both political and humanitarian crises, particularly due to the chemical attacks carried out by Iraqi forces in 1988, which are widely regarded as part of a broader campaign of ethnic persecution against the Kurdish population.

			[[Halabja]] has long been a center of Kurdish culture and resistance. During the 1980s, as tensions between Iraq and Iran escalated, the city became a strategic target in the Iran-Iraq War. The Kurdish population, which had previously supported Iran, faced severe reprisals from the Iraqi government under Saddam Hussein. This period saw widespread displacement, violence, and the systematic use of chemical weapons against Kurdish civilians, culminating in the attacks on [[Halabja]] in March 1988.

			{{H2\|The Chemical Attacks}}
	{{Bio}}
			On 16 March 1988, Iraqi forces launched a series of chemical attacks on [[Halabja]], using mustard gas and nerve agents such as sarin. The attacks targeted the city’s civilian population, resulting in thousands of deaths and long-term health effects for survivors. The attacks were part of a larger campaign of ethnic cleansing against Kurds in northern Iraq, which included the use of chemical weapons in other areas such as [[Anfal]].

			The scale of the destruction in [[Halabja]] has been well documented in international reports. For example, a 2003 European Parliament document on the Kurdish genocides of Anfal and [[Halabja]] highlights the systematic nature of the attacks and their classification as acts of genocide under international law.

			{{H2\|Aftermath and Legacy}}
			The chemical attacks on [[Halabja]] left a profound legacy of trauma and displacement. Survivors continue to suffer from the long-term effects of chemical exposure, including respiratory diseases, skin conditions, and genetic mutations. The city’s infrastructure was severely damaged, and many residents fled to other parts of Iraq or abroad.

			International attention to the [[Halabja]] massacre has been limited, though some organizations have called for accountability. The use of chemical weapons in the region remains a subject of debate in discussions about war crimes and humanitarian law.

			{{H2\|International Response and Recognition}}
			The [[Halabja]] attacks have been cited in various international contexts as evidence of Iraq’s use of prohibited weapons. For instance, the American University’s 2024 report on the real impact of chemical warfare notes that the [[Halabja]] incident is a critical case study in the humanitarian consequences of such weapons.

			Despite these efforts, the international community has not universally recognized the [[Halabja]] attacks as a genocide, though many human rights organizations and Kurdish groups continue to advocate for formal acknowledgment and reparations.
