The square intersects Arbataash Tamuz (14th July) and Al Kindi Street in the Karkh District of west-central Baghdad. It commemorates the military coup in 1958 when Iraq's monarchy was overthrown my the military and subsequently became a republic. The statue was created by Miram Al-Sa'di and unveiled in 1963. It shows four Iraqi soldiers advancing towards the Presidential Palace and a fifth soldier fallen at their feet, symbolising how one in five soldiers died during the coup.
