Take a look at the Green Zone skyline in the Iraqi capital Baghdad. Thousands of supporters of powerful Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr stormed major government buildings in Baghdad, sparking deadly clashes late Monday, shortly after al-Sadr said he would quit politics. Amid the heightened tension, a full curfew has been announced in all provinces starting from 7 p.m. local time (1600 GMT).
