Iraqi Prime Minister Mustafa Al-Kadhimi yesterday laid the foundation stone for the Grand Faw Port in the southern province of Basra, a government statement said.

The project includes building five berths to unload ships, a yard for containers, and creating an access navigation channel.

"The Grand Faw project is not only for Basra. It is a strategic project that contributes to the development and reconstruction of all governorates of Iraq, and makes the country an economic bridge linking the various countries of the region," Al-Kadhimi said during a ceremony held on-site.
