Iraq parked their planes near the ziggurat believing that no one would risk damaging the structure in order to destroy the planes. Bombs were still dropped and they caused large craters nearby. They were also damaged by stray machine gun fire.

What was the role of the ziggurat during the Persian gulf war?

During the Persian Gulf War, ziggurats, particularly the one in Ur, became symbolic representations of Iraq's ancient heritage amid the conflict. They were not directly involved in military operations but served as cultural landmarks that highlighted the region's historical significance. The war raised concerns about the protection of such archaeological sites, which were at risk due to the fighting and subsequent looting. The ziggurats thus represented the intersection of cultural heritage and the impact of modern warfare.
