CLEAN : Replicas of Assyrian statues smashed by IS unveiled in Iraq's Mosul (2)

The video discusses the history of artifacts removed from Nimrud, taken to the British Museum, and later distributed to other European museums. A planned trip in 2006 to document remaining artifacts was canceled due to instability in Iraq. Unfortunately, the lammasu statues were destroyed by the Islamic State in 2016. The latter part of the transcript is unclear and possibly corrupted.
