Description

This research is automated and may contain errors.

The Amiriyah Air Raid Shelter, located in Baghdad, Iraq, is a reinforced concrete bunker built during the Iran-Iraq War. It was designed to protect civilians from aerial bombardment and served as a critical shelter during the conflict. The structure gained international attention during the Gulf War when it was mistakenly targeted by U.S. forces, resulting in significant civilian casualties.

The shelter's thick walls and underground design reflect its purpose as a defensive structure against air raids.
