BAGHDAD (AFP) Apr 20, 2003
Baghdad's international airport was expected to open within one week for humanitarian flights, Major General Bufort Blount told AFP Sunday.

"Within a week we'll have it open for humanitarian flights," he said.

Saddam International Airport has been closed since it was seized by the US Army's Third Infantry Division early this month.
