Hawr Al Azim is also another important issue being internationally observed! Because of the remaining of Mesopotamia marshland. However plans like Karkheh Dam and water export to Kuwait can affect this. Also Iraq did not help the plan of restoration during Saddam Hussein because of draining up the marshland for security! This area is also mine polluted and also oil –and gas rich which makes it even more important!
