Around 500 families of fallen martyrs will soon receive land plots in Sulaymaniyah, as stated by the Director General of Martyrs and Anfal Victims Affairs in Sulaymaniyah, who indicated that the distribution will occur via a lottery system.

The land area given to each employee, who a relative of a martyr, will be 200 square meters. The allocation will occur through a lottery system, supplemented by points, with three criteria established: years of service, number of family members, and site of residence.

"The Sulaymaniyah Municipality has divided the land plots, and the relatives of the martyrs listed will receive the land benefits. In the initial phase, the land will be allocated to around 500 families of the martyrs," Latif stated.

According to Latif, the decision includes those mentioned in Kurdistan Region's Council of Ministers' prior decision.
