The Department of Engineering Projects at the Imam Hussain Shrine announced, Sunday, the beginning of building the concrete structure of the Zainebian Mound Sanctuary.
This project is part of the major project of expanding the shrine of Imam Hussain.
Hussain Ridha Mehdi, engineer and director of the Engineering Department, said, “The engineering staff has begun working on the concrete structure, and 70% - 75% of it will be achieved before the coming Arba’een Pilgrimage,” noting that work continues 21 hours a day.
