- The indications behind the shape of the monument.
- The hall that contains the names and family names of the Kurds that were martyred in the tragedy.
- The first hall of fame where it contains real images taken in that time.
Below are some of the photos that I took of the monument on what the second part of the Halabja monument shows.
This first image shows a number of pictures that were taken at the time of the tragedy. These are the first pictures that were taken of when the tragedy occurred. As you can see amongst those pictures there is Omari Khawar which is the first picture on the top row starting from the right that a statue of him was made in the first video. Also the two vehicles are consists of Omed's family when they tried to get away from the city. In addition the second photo on the second row from the left shows 4 people sitting on the floor at the time but if you look closely you can see there is another photo on top of that which shows the 4 of them today.
This photo is a close up of the vehicle that Omed survived in. Here he lost all of his family apart from his father who was not in Halabja at the time. As you can see people are falling of the vehicle as they were martyred. It is a miracle that Omed and his friend were the only ones that survived in this vehicle whilst the rest of his family and friends died in front of his eyes.
This picture shows that the animals where affected too in this disaster. Not only where the Kurds martyred but also all the animals and insects that were on the land of Halabja as well as it's surroundings.
This next picture shows, the Kurds that were affected by the chemical gas were taken to the different cities in Iran for treatment. In this picture it shows the people that couldn't get treated as a result their died. Before they died their name, surname, age, where they came from was noted and pictures where taken of them after a piece of paper with all their details were placed on their chest to show anyone remaining of their family and the world.
These pictures show some of the people that died when they got to Iran. Their wounds were so deep that nothing could treat them.
