Rare Neonatal Care in Kirkuk: Iraq’s Kirkuk Maternity and Children Hospital pulled off the country’s first surgery for a 20-day-old with an extremely rare congenital condition (only 22 cases worldwide), restoring the liver’s position and closing the opening after imaging confirmed Peritoneopericardial Diaphragmatic Hernia. Child Sexual Violence Case in Baghdad: A four-year-old died after a rape attack in eastern Baghdad; police say three suspects were arrested, with investigations noting possible drug influence at the time. Strait of Hormuz Pressure Hits Iraq’s Oil: With shipping risk rising, Iraq cut May crude prices by up to $33 a barrel and used “free-on-board” terms to shift disruption risk to buyers—an attempt to keep exports moving through the troubled chokepoint. Regional War Fallout: Iran is tightening its grip on Hormuz while global talks and alliance shifts continue to swirl around the U.S.-China summit and the wider Iran conflict.
