A non-profit center for women's rights defense opened in Kirkuk on Sunday under the name of “the Legal Free Center for Women in Kirkuk.”

"The center was opened in cooperation with “Future” Lebanese center and “Bena” Kirkuki center to defend the rights of women who face legal problems and cannot assign a lawyer, so we take upon our responsibility to assign a private one to defend her," lawyer Umran Sabir told.
