New Baghdad or Baghdad Al-Jidida (Arabic: بغداد الجديدة) is one of nine administrative districts in Baghdad, Iraq. This district has nine Neighborhood Advisory Councils (NAC) and a District Advisory Council. It is located east of the city center.[1][2] This district was renamed 9 Nissan or Tisa Nissan. Nissan is the word for April, although most Iraqis do not yet use that name (9 Nissan). It is also known as 7 Nissan.[3]
