WorldUS to Ease Sanctions for Iran-Iraq Pilgrim Flights to Resume
The US plans to grant a temporary sanctions waiver allowing Iraqi Airways to resume commercial flights carrying Shiite pilgrims between Iran and Najaf for one month. This follows a suspension of air links after US warnings about sanctions on regional airports serving Iranian carriers. The US Treasury may extend or make the exemption permanent depending on its implementation. The disruption affected thousands traveling to the Imam Ali Shrine in Najaf.
