Khusrawiyya Complex, damage mapping (English)

Khusrawiyya Complex, damage mapping (English)

The Khusrawiyya is severely destroyed. The northern arcade and parts of the western wing of the complex are damaged. There are parts which are still under rubble. The degree of damage is around 80%. The center of the explosion crater, produced in 2014, is located beneath the prayer room, i.e. in the domed hall of the Friday mosque, which doesn’t stand anymore. Most likely, the foundations are lost inside the inner area of the crater, while the rest of the area may contain remains of the building, perhaps sufficient for possible reconstruction. No action regarding the protection or management of the rubble has been done yet.
