US lifts ban on air service to Iraq
Washington The Bush administration lifted the ban on air service between the United States and Iraq after nearly 13 years. Sanctions on Iraq began in August 1990 for its invasion of Kuwait, with the Transportation Department restricting U S flights that stop in Iraq and Iraqi aircraft from operating to or from the United States. The alert level was lowered from orange to yellow as intelligence indications of an imminent attack diminished. No domestic terrorist strikes were attempted during that period.
