Members of Iraq’s security forces, along with internally displaced citizens, began voting in the parliamentary elections on Sunday – the sixth since the 2003 US-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein. Polls opened at 7 am for 1.3 million security personnel across 809 polling centers and will close at 6 pm before they are deployed to provide security on the main election day on Tuesday. France24 correspondent Lina Malers reports the latest from Baghdad, Iraq.
