Guardians of Truth

The monument honours journalists who have lost their lives in Iraq and the Kurdistan Region since 2003. This monument is a tribute to their courage and dedication to conveying the truth. It seeks to preserve their legacy and ensure their names are remembered forever. The fallen journalists will remain immortals, while the legacy of their killers is one of lasting shame. We hope that no more names will ever need to be added to this monument.
