The minaret at 'Ana has been destroyed by an explosion (Iraq)

The photograph on the Jazeera web site shows quite clearly that it has been destroyed right down to the base. I doubt whether it would be simple to restore.

The minaret of 'Ana is commonly attributed to the Uqaylids and the 5th/11th century, though its niches are nearly identical to those of the Baghdad Gate at Raqqa, and thus more probably of the 6th/12th century. It was situated on the island at 'Ana and belonged to the fourth phase of the congregational mosque. When the valley was flooded by the Qadisiyya Dam at Haditha in 1984-5, the Iraqi State Board of Antiquities cut it into sections, and removed it to the new 'Ana where it was re-erected at the end of the 1980s.
