Umm Qasr City

Umm Qasr, is a port city in southern Iraq. It stands on the canalised Khawr az-Zubayr, part of the Khawr Abd Allah estuary which leads to the Persian Gulf. It is separated from the border of Kuwait by a small inlet. A bridge across the waterway linked the port with Kuwait prior to the 1991 Persian Gulf War.

    This is the location of Camp Bucca; the main prisoner of war camp during the initial few years of Operation Iraqi Freedom. The picture for Umm Qasr is not a recent picture; but you can see the southwest corner of the base security perimeter if you look closely at the 'newer' picture to the west.
