Shrine of Husayn's Head in 1943

Thank you for the review Onegreatjoke. I have been through and added the missing citations. On image, the other alternative is shown on the right here - I have colorized it to make it look even clearer. Onceinawhile (talk) 23:33, 7 January 2023 (UTC)

I doubt the image will go through but approve for citations seeming alright. Onegreatjoke (talk) 21:10, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
