Follow up report on the emergency cleanup operation in the damaged fourth wing of the Ma’ara museum by the TDA-HPI Site Monitors team in cooperation with Syrian Culture Centre, May 11, 2016.
Work began to clear the rubble, and the fallen stone masonry was gathered and placed to one side. The sandbagged floor mosaics near the strike zone were uncovered and inspected then recovered with additional new sandbags for increased protection. A number of mosaics that had been stored in this wing were also moved as a precautionary measure to the first wing for safety.
