Sha'aban Intifada (1 mar 1991 año – 5 abr 1991 año)
Descripción:
The 1991 uprisings in Iraq, sometimes referred to as the 1991 Iraqi Civil War were a series of popular rebellions in northern and southern Iraq in March and April 1991 during a ceasefire in the Persian Gulf War. The mostly uncoordinated insurgency, often referred to as the Sha'aban Intifada among Shi'ite Arabs and as the National Uprising among Kurds, was fueled by the perception that then Iraqi President Saddam Hussein had become vulnerable to regime change. This perception of weakness was largely the result of the outcome of two prior wars: the Iran–Iraq War and the invasion of Kuwait, both of which occurred within a single decade and devastated the economy and population of Iraq.
