The seminar addressed the concept of legitimate self-defense and its importance in protecting individuals against unlawful attacks within the framework of the law. The seminar discussed the conditions of legitimate self-defense, the importance of proportionality between the defense and the severity of the attack, and the position of the Iraqi legislator under the amended Iraqi Penal Code No. (111) of 1969. It also clarified the circumstances in which self-defense is considered lawful and those in which it exceeds the limits permitted by law. The seminar emphasized the importance of raising legal awareness of individuals’ rights and duties and distinguishing lawful self-defense from revenge, thereby promoting respect for the law and safeguarding rights and freedoms.
