Iraq’s powerful cleric Moqtada al-Sadr ordered his followers to end their protests in central Baghdad on Tuesday, easing a confrontation that led to the deadliest violence in the Iraqi capital in years.

“This is not a revolution because it has lost its peaceful character,” Moqtada al-Sadr, a former anti-US insurgent leader, said in a televised address. “The spilling of Iraqi blood is forbidden.” Monday’s clashes between rival factions of Iraq’s Shi’ite Muslim majority follow 10 months of political deadlock since Iraq’s October parliamentary election, which have raised fears of escalating unrest.

This week’s violence erupted after al-Sadr said he was withdrawing from all political activity – a decision he said was in response to the failure of other Shi’ite leaders and parties to reform a corrupt and decaying governing system.The Iraqi military declared an open-ended nationwide curfew on Monday and urged the protesters to leave the Green Zone.
