According to Airlive.net, numerous airlines have suspended flights to Baghdad after a passenger plane arriving from the Mideast’s busiest airport in Dubai came under fire as it landed in the Iraqi capital.
Iraqi Transportation Minister Bayan Jabr said authorities believe the shooting was unintentional – possibly from someone firing off rounds at a social event such as a wedding or funeral – but they are not ruling out the possibility that it was an intentional terrorist attack.
He said three rounds struck the plane, including one that penetrated the passenger cabin, and that a girl onboard was slightly wounded.
