Life Goes On Parkour/Freerunning In Iraq

-->
With violence increasing in Iraq it is always important to remember that people there are still trying to live their daily lives and go about their business. In some parts of Iraq this is easier than others. Najaf is one such area, which has not seen a single attack there in 2014. Here are some pictures of young people in the city on May 14 practicing Parkour/Freerunning a sport that involves a mix of running, jumping, and acrobatics.
