Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Al Zaidi has ordered the activation of a law granting financial rewards to corruption whistleblowers.
More than $1 billion has been recovered through an anti-corruption campaign launched with a raid on Baghdad's Green Zone in late June.
Over 26,000 corruption reports have been submitted to Iraq's Integrity Commission since the campaign began.
Mr Al Zaidi has ordered high-profile arrests and asset seizures targeting senior officials across the oil, electricity and other ministries since taking office in May.
