The advantage of this index is that it reflects both past (chronic) and/or present (acute) under nutrition (although it is unable to distinguish between the two). Stunting: Low height-for-age index identifies past under nutrition or chronic malnutrition. It cannot measure short term changes in malnutrition. For children below 2 years of age, the term is length-for-age; above 2 years of age, the index is referred to as height-for-age. Deficits in length- for-age or height-for-age are referred to as stunting. Wasting: Low weight-for-height helps to identify children suffering from current or acute

The data broken down by aircraft type responsible for the strike (e.g. Typhoon, Tornado and Reaper) and by month, beginning from September 2014 (Iraq) and December 2015 (Syria). Please include data up to the latest date possible while processing this request. 2) All allegations of civilian casualties from RAF strikes in Iraq and Syria received by the British government since the start of Operation SHADER. For each allegation, please provide the date, location, and all other details available such as the numbers of civilians killed or injured. Your correspondence has been treated as a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOIA). A search for the information has now been completed within the Ministry of Defence, and we can confirm that some information in scope of your request is held. The answers to your questions are included below. Information concerning enemy killed and wounded in action is based on the best available post-strike analysis. This information, however, is only given as an estimate as the UK is not in a position to visit airstrike sites inside Syria and verify the facts. One of the aims of the UK and Coalition airstrikes is to dismantle Daesh’s military infrastructure by targeting fortified positions, command and control sites, and military equipment rather than Daesh fighters.

  • Governorate Profile Missan
    Governorate Profile Missan Source image: JAPU Missan at a Glance Fast Facts Area: 16,072 km2 Capital City: Amarah Average High Temperatures: 16,5°C Average Low Temperatures: 6,2°C (January) to 45,5°C (July) (January) to 28,5°C (July) Population: 922,072 Population Distribution Rural-Urban: 27,6%-72,4% Updated December 2015 Geography and Climate The governorate of Missan is located in south-eastern Iraq on the border with Iran. The Al-Sheeb border crossing connects Missan with Iran. Missan shares internal boundaries with the governorates of Basrah, Thi-Qar and Wassit. The Tigris River runs through Missan and feeds the marshlands which once covered two thirds of the governorate. The marshland has shrunken drastically following the draining campaign of the 1990s, with much of the drained landscape turning into desert. After the 1991 Shiite uprising, which will be covered in more detail in the historical introduction section, the Ba’athist regime constructed a series of dams and canals aiming to drain the marshes, of which less than a quarter remain today. After the 2003 invasion the marshes have been partially reflooded. Missan has a typical desert climate, with dry, hot summers and cooler winters. In summer high temperatures easily reach over 40°C. Rainfall is concentrated in the winter months and averages 177 mm yearly. Population and Administrative Division The governorate of Missan is divided into six districts: Ali Al-Gharbi, Al-Mejar Al-Kabir, Al-Maimouna, Al- Kahla, Amarah and Qal’at Saleh. The majority of Missan’s inhabitants follow the Shia branch of Islam.

The backstory for both accounts begins when Abu Musab al-Zarqawi’s violent jihadi group al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) had infested VICTOR ASAL the Al Qaim district of Anbar after fleeing Fallujah. Having presented them- University at Albany SUNY selves as freedom fighters, the militants were now beginning to show their true ALEJANDRA BOLANOS intent, using killings and coercion to keep the locals in line with their radical National Defense University al Qaeda agenda. Although most of the Anbar tribes opposed the U.S.-led LAWRENCE CLINE occupation, once the sheikhs realized that AQI was working to undermine their Naval Postgraduate School authority, they had a change of heart, and the Sahawa (Awakening) was born.
