Shafaq News/ The Iraqi lawmaking body failed to secure the quorum of the extraordinary session to discuss the tragic incident of Ibn Khatib hospital, with less than a hundred MP in the parliament hall.
A source told Shafaq News Agency that the attendees' count did not meet the quorum, which prompted the Deputy Speaker of the Parliament, Hasan al-Kaabi, to render the session "Deliberative".
The source added, "the attending MPs were less than one hundred."
The Parliament Speaker, Muhammad al-Halboosi, invited the representatives to an extraordinary session to discuss the aftermath of the Ibn Khatib incident in Baghdad, which killed 88 and injured 110.
