The UAE will fund the rebuilding of the Great Mosque of Al Nuri, which was last year destroyed by ISIS in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.

The Ministry of Culture has funded the UN’s heritage agency, Unesco, in a US$50.4 million (Dh185.1m) plan to rebuild the mosque, which was where ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi announced in 2014 that he had established a “caliphate” in Iraq and Syria.

The 800-year-old mosque, with its famous leaning minaret, was destroyed by the extremists as one of their last acts before Iraq’s second-largest city was liberated in June.

Its five-year restoration will be the UAE’s first major reconstruction project in Iraq and the flagship of Unesco’s Revive the Spirit of Mosul plan, announced in February, to rebuild the Old City.
