Iraqi airline companies cancelled Thursday all air flights due to a strong sand storm hitting Baghdad and different Iraqi cities.
An official in one of Iraq's airline companies told Deutsche Presse-Agentur dpa that strong sand storms hit Iraq since the early morning of Thursday, which resulted in postponing and cancelling all domestic and foreign air flights.
The storm is considered the strongest since 2008, stopping US helicopters from hovering over Baghdad.
