Iraqi eight archaeologists to visit London in the framework of British Museum's program aims to supply Iraq with electronic and drilling skills needed to save the artifacts and rebuild the ancient sites that ISIS militants attempted to destroy. 

Jonathan Tab, director of the urgent training program for the management of the archaeological heritage of Iraq, said that the project began as an attempt to do something positive to serves the ancient history of Iraq.

We prepare them with all the necessary skills and tools to deal with the most egregious forms of destruction, to repair the archaeological sites, Tab added.

Each of the eight archaeologists spend three months in the theoretical training at the British Museum and three other as practical training in the  archaeological locations, in Iraq, he said.

Zaid Saadallah, archaeological from Mosul, fled with his family, when ISIS fighters took control of city in 2014. In February 2015, he shocked after watching a video footage, broadcasted on the internet by ISIS, of destroying Mosul Museum's antiquities, which Saadallah was working, includes pieces dating from the seventh century BC.

SaadAllah, who stays now in London for training, said that the destruction prevails the city. "They killed more people and destroyed more antiquities, and we will rebuild and revive Mosul," he said.
