Baghdad (Union)
Yesterday, hundreds of Iraqis performed the Eid al-Adha prayer in the square of the Al-Nuri Mosque, which was destroyed by the terrorist organization “ISIS”, for the first time in 5 years. Hundreds of Iraqis gathered to perform the Eid prayer in the courtyard of the Great Al-Nuri Mosque, famous for its hunchback minaret in the old city in the center of Mosul, which was blown up by ISIS in June 2017 during the battles to liberate Nineveh Governorate from the organization’s control. The people expressed their happiness to return to praying in the courtyard of the Great Al-Nuri Mosque, and called for the speedy reconstruction of it again and the removal of signs of destruction.
