Khawr Abd Allah
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Khawr Abd Allah (Arabic: خور عبد الله) is today an estuary, but once was the point where the great Euphrates and Tigris rivers emptied into the Persian Gulf. Located in the south of Iraq, the Iraq-Kuwaiti border divides the lower portion of the estuary, but adjacent to the port of Umm Qasr the estuary becomes wholly Iraqi. The Shatt al-Arab is now the point where the great rivers drain out, east of the Khawr Abd Allah.
