The former Iraqi president, Saddam Hussein 69, was executed, according to Iraqi officials, shortly before 6am at an Iraqi miltary facility in northern Baghdad. The photograph was taken moments before his hanging, and his body was shown on Iraqi television after the execution.
Saddam was convicted of killing 148 Shias after a failed assassination attempt in 1982.
