An analysis by the Eco Iraq Observatory revealed that the stolen funds recovered by the state during Operation Dawn exceed the monthly salaries of several ministries and government agencies, and are equivalent to a full month's salaries for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
In a press release, the Observatory stated that the total cash value of the recovered funds reached approximately 390.08 billion Iraqi dinars, after converting $141 million into Iraqi dinars.
It added that adding the value of the recovered gold, amounting to half a ton at a price of 185,000 dinars per gram, raises the total value of the recovered funds to approximately 482.6 billion Iraqi dinars.
The Observatory explained that this amount exceeds the monthly salaries of several ministries, including the Ministry of Transportation, the Ministry of Environment, the Ministry of Migration and Displacement, and the Ministry of Oil. It is also roughly equivalent to the salaries of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' employees and diplomatic staff for a full month.
