Photos: Fury in Baghdad after Miss Iraq takes a selfie with Miss Israel

Miss Iraq's family have been forced to flee the country after the beauty queen posed for a selfie with Miss Israel last month, prompting fury in Baghdad.
The picture posted on Instagram by Iraq's Sarah Idan with Adar Gandelsman of Israel
The picture shows Iraq's Sarah Idan and Israel's Adar Gandelsman, representing their countries at the Miss Universe pageant in Las Vegas in the US.
Their selfie appeared on Idan's Instagram page with references to promoting 'peace and love' - but it soon sparked a social media backlash.
There was so much anger towards the image in Iraq that Idan's family was forced to flee the country in fear, Gandelsman told Israeli TV.
