Monument of the Swords of Kadisia

The monument "Swords of Qadizia" ("Hands of Victory") was repeatedly destroyed by American soldiers, but each time in vain, and this monument represents the victory in the Iran-Iraq war, stands to this day in Baghdad.

The triumphal arches were designed by Saddam Hussein and became the main attraction of Baghdad. And on the bronze hands is the thumbprint of Saddam Hussein. At the base of the monument lie more than a thousand Iranian military helmets of soldiers, which became a trophy of Iraqi soldiers.

The pride of the locals is the fact that the swords, whose height is more than 40 meters, are also made of captured trophies of enemy equipment and weapons, and are made of stainless steel.
