This was followed by a speech by the deputy of the Supreme Religious Authority, Sheikh Tariq al-Baghdadi, in which he praised the role of the Al-Abbas's (p) holy shrine in providing service and knowledge projects, including this project that he considered as the immunization project for the children of beloved Iraq, thanking everyone who contributed to the establishment of this great Quranic project.
