As the school bell rang, students hurried into their classrooms. The lively courtyard fell silent, allowing the cheerful sounds of reading to stand out.
The scene unfolded at a model school built with the help of Chinese expertise in Muthanna, Iraq.
The school, set up by the Power Construction Corporation of China (PowerChina), spans 3,500 square meters and accommodates about 1,200 students. It features modern facilities designed to enhance the learning environment.
