About 886,000 telephones were in use in Iraq in the mid-1980s; radios in the early 1990s numbered about 4 million and televisions about 1.4 million. A government decree of 1967 closed all privately owned daily newspapers. The country had nine dailies in the early 1990s; ath-Thawra, issued by the Baath political party, is one of the country's largest Arabic newspapers, with a circulation of 250,000.
