After sudden speculations resulted in an increase in the rate of exchange, exchange offices in the province of Anbar have decided not to buy or sell the dollar.
“The fluctuation in the exchange rate of the dollar, which rose suddenly, led exchange offices to refrain from trading in the currency,” according to a governorate source.
“The exchange offices are waiting for the market to stabilize to resume dollar trading,” he added.
“In search of exchange rate speculators,” he explained, “a force from the National Security Service carried out a security operation targeting a number of exchange offices.”
“After it was 150 thousand dinars for every 100 dollars,” he explained, “the exchange rate jumped to 155 thousand dinars for every 100 dollars.”
