Скачать или смотреть Press freedom in Iraq: Why some journalists are receiving death threats

This week marks one year since hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets of Iraq to call for the removal of the country's ruling elite. The deadly rallies led to the resignation of then-prime minister Adel Abdul Mahdi. Today, it's not just the protest movement that's under threat. Some media outlets have been shut down, while a number of journalists have been detained or even received death threats. We're joined from Erbil by Hiwa Osman to hear about his experience of working as a journalist in Baghdad covering those protests and why he had to flee the capital.
