US weighs Iran sanctions carve-out for Najaf religious flights
Asharq Al-Awsat·US · IR · IQ·2 days ago
Iraqi Airways announced it will resume flights to Iran in October following a 'special exemption' from US sanctions, secured through Iraqi government efforts. This marks a notable exception to US sanctions enforcement, potentially easing bilateral travel and trade. The scope and conditions of the exemption remain unclear, and its implications for broader US-Iran sanctions policy are uncertain.
