Iraq’s Arab Socialist Ba’ath Party declared Monday the death of prominent leader Izzat al-Douri, who was the vice-president of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein from his accession to power in 1979 until his fall in 2003.
The Ba’ath party mourned Douri, who died at the age of 78, saying, “On the land of Iraq and the land of equanimity and Jihad, comrade Izzat Ibrahim al-Douri, the Knight of the Ba’ath party and the Iraqi National Resistance, got off his horse today.”
