FLIGHTS SUSPENDED
It was reported that flights were resumed at Baghdad, Najaf and Sulaymaniyah airports, where flights were suspended due to a sandstorm that caused visibility to fall below 300 meters in some regions, while flights were suspended at the airport due to the storm that was effective in Basra.
In the statement made by the Basra Airport Directorate, it was noted that flights were suspended until the weather conditions improved due to the sandstorm that caused the decrease in visibility. (AA-UAV)
