TEHRAN, July 15 - Iranian Ambassador to Iraq Iraj Masjedi said problems at Najaf Airport have been resolved.
TEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - The situation has returned to normal at the airport of the Iraqi holy city of Najaf after protesters decrying economic hardship withdrew from the facility.
State television said on Friday that flights had resumed at the airport.
Earlier in the day, hundreds of Iraqis stormed the facility and halted air traffic, Reuters said.
The protests came after days-long demonstrations in the southern oil hub of Basra against unemployment and poor quality of public services.
Also on Friday, Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi visited Basra and met with military and security officials.
