I was moreconcern about the KKMC, Dharan or Ali al Salem.

Not only that, this place may be the most historic place in the entire DCS: Afghanistan map. This site may have been established around the 6th century AD and was mentioned in historical documents such as "The Great Tang Records on the Western Regions". This Buddha statue also witnessed modern history. In any case, I think it is a pity not to add it to the DCS: Afghanistan map.

Maybe yes, Sth building like Amiriyah shelter, was leave open space. btw, Zawra'a Tower and Baghdad Zoo also with the important landmark at the baghdad since 1970s
-
nullZawra'a Tower is an iconic historical landmark nestled in the heart of Baghdad,Is the old Iraqi icon building. This is probably the most famous scene in the Gulf War. Judging from the location, the target was the Republican Guard headquarters in the distance. The bright light from the explosion illuminated the Al Zawra Tower. But in the game, this building is nowhere to be found.

However,Such an important building does not appear in the DCS:Iraq map.The building at this location was replaced by a flat storey house. nullnullnull

Al-Zaqura Palace (Arabic: قصر الزقورة) is an Iraqi government building situated in the Green Zone in the capital Baghdad. Maintained by the office of the Prime Minister of Iraq, it is occupied by the office of the prime minister. The building was commissioned under the presidency of Ahmed Hassan al-Bakr. It was built in 1975 by Saeed Ali Madhlum and CP Kukreja Associates as the building for the Council of Ministers, or cabinet The building's exterior is in the Brutalist architecture style, the exterior reminiscing an ancient Ziggurat (in Arabic: Al Zaqura). Brutalist style uses one material on the exterior, which is concrete, and is massive in appearance. Although the exterior was inspired by ancient Mesopotamia and a mix of Islamic elements, the inside is decorated in the style of Islamic architecture. The building was targeted during the Iraq War by Coalition forces in aerial bombardment and sustained heavy damage in 2003, which external damage shows in a photograph taken in 2003.It was renovated by the Iraqi conglomerate Harlow International.

Thanks, according my research and communicat with iraq local, they confirm this building is the first building destroy in baghdad. Also, you could look at my other building project—— In Iraq Maps(The names of the buildings here are mainly based on the names of the coalition forces, although these buildings have related Arabic names.Arabic names always more accurate description of the building's function): Secret Police HQ and AT&T Building never appear on the game map. The Minister of Propaganda, Iraqi Air Force HQ, and Ministry of Defense National Computer Complex were replaced by simple, featureless buildings that look like residential houses. But what confuses me most is the "National Air Defense Sector" that the coalition forces are targeting. I asked local Iraqis and searched for Arabic and English related information on Google, but I couldn't find any information. Moreover, since the Iraq War, Baghdad has expanded rapidly, and a military hospital has been built where the "National Air Defense Sector" used to be. Satellite photos from around 2005 show that the place was a factory. Can you find relevant information? In addition, I am fluent in Arabic, but only in standard Arabic. I am not familiar with the local Iraqi dialect. I can help you as much as possible.

Hi,Huilque151,do you see these building I send to the "Wish List“?I think the most important is”AT&T Building“ (بدالة السنك-Al Sinak Telephone Exchange) at the 33°19'52"N 44°24'7"E. Al-Sinak Telephone Exchange is the famous and building in baghdad since 1970's. It's being damaged during gulf war and Iraq war as the target. Furthermore,It's now still play the irreplaceable role on the baghdad city. However,at the DCS:Iraq Map, In these place I don't see even any high building.

There's also with the SOC Ali Al Salem(29.21.14"N / 47°31'48"E )at 5th ADS(Kuwait)
-
agree. also with Salman Pak 's SAM sector and IOC
-
Here’s the place in DCS, From the outside, it looks like a simple residential building, which is very crudely made and does not reflect the grandeur that a government building should have.

I noticed that at point 23 in the above data picture, which is the corner of Haifa Street and Nasir Street, on the left bank of Ahrar Bridge, there is a place called "Ministry of Propaganda" However, while I find this place, It not have any of the Building which the name include"propaganda" or "news". So I search the Arabic name and added the "Gulf War" "1991" "Airstrike".As a result, I found some clues. According to Iraqi locals, This place not called "Ministy of Propaganda". It's called Ministy of Local Goveronment actually during saddam time. Today, the building is called The Ministry of Municipalities and Public Works (وزارة البلديات والاشغال العامه). Whether in Saddam's time or today, this building is very important in Baghdad. I think it should be added to the DCS:Iraq Map.

New Iraqi Air Force Headquarters, Baghdad \ This building complex is also belongs to the Iraqi Air Force Headquarters.Nowadays,this place is called Ministry of Trade. Like what the Facebook user "قصور عراقية"said that,وأصبحت وزارة الكهرباء والتجارة(It became the Ministry of Electricity and Trade). Location: 33°19′19"N,44°22′3"E
