Al-Shaheed Monument

Al-Shaheed Monument also known as the Martyr's Memorial, is a monument designed by Iraqi sculptor, Ismail Fatah Al Turk, and is situated in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad. It is dedicated to the Iraqi soldiers who died in the Iran–Iraq War. However, now it is generally considered by Iraqis to be a commemoration of all of Iraq's martyrs, especially those allied with Iran and Syria currently fighting ISIS, not just of the Iran–Iraq War.
