Posted with the video:

هؤلاء ثوار ثورة اكتوبر
وهذا الفديو يوم ٢٥ اكتوبر. ٢٠١٩ لم أتمكن يومها من تحميله بسبب قطع الانترنيت. ببغداد
هذه كانت الساعات الاولى صباحا حيث تمكن الثوار المتظاهرون من عبور جسر الجمهورية
لم يكتمل هذا الفديو
بسبب الرصاص الحي الذي تعرضنا له من قبل الملثمين الذين كانوا متحصنين داخل أسوار المنطقة الخضراء / البوابة التي تجاور وزارة التخطيط
ثورة طاهرة ليس لها قيادات ولا منصات ، حتمًا ستنتصر مهما طالت جولاتها
These are the revolutionaries of October revolution
And this video is October 25th. 2019 I couldn’t upload it because of internet cutting. In Baghdad
These were the first hours in the morning where protesters were able to cross the Republic Bridge
This video is not complete
Due to the live bullets we were exposed to by masked people who were barricaded inside the walls of the green zone / gate near the Ministry of Planning
A pure revolution has no leaders nor platforms, it will surely win no matter how long its rounds
