Project Engineer Dia Muhammad Ali said in this regard, "The General Secretariat of Imam Hussain Holy Shrine has adopted the establishment of this project as a contribution to finding decent housing for poor and needy families in the province of Karbala," noting that the overall completion rate has exceeded 28%.

The housing project is located on the Karbala-Babylon Road, with a total area of 38.5 ha and a building area of 13.5 ha.
