Dear Sir,
Karbala is located very near to Fallujah, which is an ISIS strong-hold, and will be subject to fighting in the near future. Security at the Karbala work site would be a main concern, and surely the project contractors are taking this into account. You might ask about the specific security measures in-place now. This would include security at the work site and security measures when travelling to airports.
