Abstract
This week on War News Radio, We investigate the US military’s use of burn pits to dispose of trash at military bases in Iraq and Afghanistan, and how some veterans believe the pits have created serious health problems. Louis Katz reports.
Next, we hear from photojournalist about her experiences in Iraq at the beginning of the war. Sammia Abbas has the story.
Finally, we take a look at the building boom that is changing the face of cities in Iraqi Kurdistan. Kyle Goekner-Wald brings us more.
These stories this week, plus the week’s news.
