"...A group of Italian architects
are resurrecting parts of the war-ravaged ancient Syrian city of
Palmyra by recreating the 2,000-year-old Triumphal Arch from the Temple
of Bel – much of which was destroyed by the Islamic State (ISIL) over the past year.
The 3D robotic printers are being used to print the arch in Italy’s Carrara mountains so as to bring the historic ruins back to life. Later this month, it will go on display in London’s Trafalgar Square and New York’s Times Square before being taken to Palmyra."

Meanwhile in Iraq its engineers are fast at work:
"...A team of Italian specialists arrived Thursday at the site of the Mosul Dam as part of an emergency campaign to repair Iraq’s largest dam before it collapses.
The advance team from the Italian engineering firm Trevi Group will set up a camp for the group of engineers who are expected to arrive within a few weeks.
U.S. and Iraqi officials have repeatedly warned that the dam is in imminent danger of collapse."
