Iraq first to join Iran flights ban
Agence France-Presse has confirmed that Iraq has become the first country to declare compliance with the Iranian airlines ban after the United States decided to suspend the flights of these airlines due to American sanctions. The implementation of the ban is scheduled to begin at dawn on Tuesday, with all Iranian flights to and from Iraq ceasing. This reflects Iran’s diminished influence in the region and increases economic pressure on its aviation sector, which has been suffering from longstanding sanctions. The U.S. Treasury Secretary confirmed that Iranian airlines would cease operations starting September 23, after the United States imposed sanctions on all remaining companies supporting the Iranian aviation industry.
