After losing most of his territorial gains by May 1982 (when Iran recaptured Khorramshahr), Saddam Husseinâs strategic response was to proclaim a unilateral cease-fire (June 10, 1982) while ordering Iraqi forces to withdraw to the border.
Saddam formally rose to power in 1979, although he had been the de facto head of Iraq for several years prior. He suppressed several movements, particularly Shi'a and Kurdish movements, seeking to overthrow the government or gain independence,[8] and maintained power during the IranâIraq War and the Gulf War.
