Bridge Vital for Commerce Reopens
Iraq Fact of the Day

The Coalition joined with Iraqis recently to re-open the Khazir Bridge over the Greater Zab River between Mosul and Arbil. The bridge is critical for the movement of fuel and agricultural products throughout northern Iraq. Improvement of Iraq's transportation infrastructure is vital to the continued expansion of commerce in Iraq.
