Stadium
The Al-Fallujah Stadium was rehabilitated in 2013 by the Ministry of Youth and Sports,[2][3] and after this year, ISIS took control of the Al-Fallujah Stadium when it occupied the Al Anbar Governorate.[4] In June 2016, the Iraqi Armed Forces managed to liberate the Fallujah areas, including the stadium.[5] The stadium was reconstructed starting in 2017,[6][7] Then was vandalized as a result of the families displaced from Syria housing in it, and in 2021 the stadium was rehabilitated again,[8] and the team returned to play on its ground.
