Mafqud means disappeared in Arabic. Mafqud.org is the first site devoted entirely to the disappeared in Iraq, and the first fully bilingual (Arabic/English) site dealing with human rights in Iraq. The state of human rights in Iraq is among the worst in the world. To date, no one has an exact count of the Iraqi disappeared, but it certainly exceeds 100,000. Thus, enforced disappearances are among the most egregious abuses of human rights in Iraq: per capita, the number of disappeared in Iraq is the highest in the world.
No Iraqi community has been spared from these disappearances: Arabs, Kurds, Muslims, Christians, Shia, Sunni, · All have suffered, but those who have suffered the most are the Iraqi Kurds, principally because of the Anfal Campaigns, during which thousands of villages in Iraqi Kurdistan were emptied of their inhabitants, and many were killed. Several thousand were killed using poison gas, as happened in Halabja.
