Your anchor tags are not closed properly:

Compare this (what you have)

      <a href="https://twitter.com/louloudiene"
         <img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="twitter logo">
      </a>
      <a href="https://www.facebook.com/"
         <img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="facebook logo">
      </a>

To this:

      <a href="https://twitter.com/louloudiene">
         <img src="img/twitter-wrap.png" alt="twitter logo">
      </a>
      <a href="https://www.facebook.com/">
         <img src="img/facebook-wrap.png" alt="facebook logo">
      </a>

If you pay close attention the open bracket of the image tag "<img" is highlighted in orange.
