It will include a scaled replica of the infamous iron roundabout, complete with small models of severed heads to depict the brutal public punishments carried out during ISIS control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The third section will focus on artistic sculptures representing key human rights violations. One sculpture highlights the oppression of women under ISIS rule, using authentic imagery to show how women were excluded from public life. Another depicts a beheading scene, while a third memorializes victims of enforced disappearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sharif noted that the sculptures were commissioned by the Culture Board and crafted by a local sculptor from Raqqa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Work on the museum began in early 2024 and has been carried out in three stages, construction of the facility, interior design, and acquisition of documents and exhibition content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>By Zana al-Ali<\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RAQQA, Syria (North Press) \u2013 The Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria (AANES) is preparing to inaugurate a museum in the city of Raqqa, northern Syria, dedicated to documenting the violations committed by the Islamic State (ISIS) during its control of the city, an official said on Monday.
