It began when Iraq launched an attack on an Iranian air base, starting continual warfare between the two countries for nearly a year. Ceasefire attempts in 1982 and 1987 by Iraq were rejected by Iran. In 1984, the war became a chemical weapons conflict with Iraq's introduction of such arms. Finally, in 1988, the UN passed a resolution calling for a ceasefire which Iran accepted, bringing the long war to an end.
